9xl 4s lipo 5000 ez run esc in e maxx good?

[superlightmaxx]

that`s good to know about the ez-run being better than the sidewinder!
I guess I'm going to go with my first idea and try two ez-run 60a esc and 2 hobby city 8s feigao clones! I'll experiment with that set-up and if something goes poof at least it will have cost me only 160$ total! but if it does work...\
160$ for a twin brushless set-up... :O)

Go for it. I think you should run at least L motors though to keep temps down.

dont forget i`ll be running 2 of thoses S cans! i`m already running one L can and it`s already anough for the truck! it a gorillaé tryggy style maxx and pretty light... dont you think 2 L would be overkill? i'm not going for 60mph spped runs here... lol just want a reliable light 4s (2sx2) system for my truck but with the cool factor also... with 8s 4400kv they should be pretty cool running at a max of 35000rpm and splitting the load betwen them... dont you think guys...

Two L size motors would not be over kill to me. If you get 2 8L's you would have a cooler running setup.

Interesting dilema.

Since the vxl motors are something like M can, and 2 of those can achieve 60mph on 2x 3s lipo @ 3500kv, then a pair of S cans on 2x2s each should do 40mph easily enough @ 4400kv. Like you said, a single L can is enough power for you, so a pair of S cans should be about equal in that respect- just added cool factor from the twin BL layout.

If you wanted to go for higher speeds, L cans would be better ofcourse...

Personally I'd go with 2 s cans.

I still say L cans.

The vxl motors have shorter windings and magnets than a s can feigao, so I would call them petite motors...

For his setup of 2s lipo the higher kv would be better. And gearing options are limited to 22t max on the pinion before you have to buy more expensive pinions. I would personally use 2 sidewinders and the cc 5700 motors. Especially the new design of the motors. Or a pair of 50mm medusa v2 motors.

Not going to get enough motor speed out of L cans, and the gearing will be difficult to achieve with only 2s on each motor.

VXL motors are considered smaller than s size motors?

thanks lincpimp! that's what I tought also about the L cans! not high enough kv to use only 2s. That's why I choose 8s because I want to run 2s and have a good set-up... so 35000rpm seems the ideal choice
I tought I would gear it for about 40mph and see from there...
I tought of a 24/72 pinion/spur combo gives me 14.7 ratio
with 5.5" truggy tires should be ok
What do you guys think?
Is that gearing to high?

Ok thats why you are going to use 2 s cans. I guess i didn't under stand before.

no problemo traxxasbasher13 :O)

Thanks :)
