i think aslong as the price is reasonable it will be a MMM

so what sort of packs should i be looking at from here? www.maxamps.com
so far from the info everyone has given i know i need 4/5s atleast 100A continuous
personaly i would like similar performance to a nitro buggy amd runtimes long enough to make a 15 minute final(so around 20 mins to be safe) and at the moment it looks like im going with a MMM

or even better would be if i could buy just one pack(even if it is more expensive) that will last me 3 qualifiers and a final so 30 minutes(35-40 to me safe)

are either of those acheivable with the kind of setup im looking at?

Ok, given my experience, I would suggest to use a MMM, and a medusa 36/60/2000, in the V2 line. Run that on 5s lipo and you will have a cool running system with plenty of power for a buggy. I run a 36/60/1500 on 6s lipo in a hyper8 buggy and it does fine. Very nice motors for the money. I would stay away from maxamps, as there are other battery choices that will perform better and cost about the same.

So my suggestions, with links:

MMM : http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...steresc&cat=21

Medusa 36/60/2000, found on this page: http://www.medusaproducts.com/motors...MR036060XXXX-5

Battery : http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...5S_3700&cat=18

The rcmonster store can also provide you with the motor mount and battery tray, plus the pinions and other odds and ends that you need. You could buy a neu 1512 motor from there instead of the medusa, but the medusa is on special right now.

yes i do plan to get the motor mount and battery tray from rc-monster
are there any similar motors that are available through rc-monster so i could make the whole purchase from one shop as i imagine shipping to UK and customs will cost me alot
what runtimes do you get with that setup? i was expecting to need a higher mah battery
