How fast are the VXLs really are?

Top speed was the same in a converted Revo with stock gearing & a X1-CRT with stock gearing.

So, I don't see what could've been wrong with you batts to make that much of a difference.

Either way, they're still faster than nitro!!!

that might be telling you something about the quality of Maxamps packs

DING! We have a winner....

#1...good luck getting a stampede over 60mph.....there just not stable enough to go that fast...the vxl on 3s will easily get you to 70+ in a rustler or bandit with the right gearing

now take that velinion motor and pair it with a mm on 4s, right gears and tires that will hold up and you will do over 80mph

i've finally got rid of the cheap Protek lipos.. Back to NeuEnergy.. Ordered a 4s 5000mah pack.. Now its the waiting game =]

Thanks for all the input guys!!
