Wich Neu for a Stampede???

You also might want to take a look at HAckers I have a 7L in my CRT.5 and its incredibly powerful. I'm running it at 50k rpm and the temps stay pretty low.

I never really had an issue with the gears. I was always blowing planetary's though. My setup was Feigao 8xl, 5s lipo, Hacker Master ESC. Hit 83mph with it before it became a flipping frenzy.

I ran a plett maxx in my pede, and it worked well. The Medusa sounds like the best bet, they are nice motors, and well made too. I had some issues with the planetary gears, but eventually found it was my custom dogbone setup wobbling too much. It would make the teeth shear off the output gears inside the diff. Otherwise, my other 4 pedes and rustler and slash have held up fine with the vxl diffs... Use stock sliders with all but one truck that uses the mip cvds...

Surprised you havent snapped one of those MIP CVD stub's yet. Their the weak point on the axles and tend to break quite easily.

I have had good success with them so far...

Lucky SOB linc. I broke mine and so did my friend and we both were running basic 2s setups.
