Race Revo Build - Suggestions

[suicideneil]

14.4v is a real handycap, and really does limit your motor options- I doubt any outrunners will run all that well on such a low voltage (in a direct-drive setup).

How long do the races last?

Im thinking you may have to use a hotter motor than the 8XL to get any decent speed, but it depends how tight the track is- acceleration being more important obviously on a tight track. Anyway, for racing the stock revo tranny should be fine, use it with the RCM motor mount, then stick the batts on the other side of the chassis, using the TeknoRC battery tray maybe....
