They'll fit, just gotta use the other mount Certainly not practical and an 80mm Medusa is the best choice IMO, but there's always the option.

I have an 80mm Medusa and I'm fairly sure it'll fulfill the need for speed, very powerful motor.


All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.

also one thing to remember at speeds over 50 mph a MT starts to become unstable..a 1515 motor will get you that far.....

with my experience a 1515 2.5d on 6s is stupid, so I can only assume a 1515 1y on 6s is stupider! 1515 2.5d on 5s is still insane yet driveable! Does your friend want to actually use this truck or just break it? MMM combo on a good pair of 2s Lipo, tires to match the terrain your running on, and just run it! When something breaks then you upgrade that part! Everyone's driving style is different so everyone breaks different parts. No matter how much power you put in an E-REVO it's all a waste if you can't drive it! Wheelies get old fast in my opinion. So I suggest not going for the most insane setup but instead going for something that is actually driveable, even if money isn't an object! In the perfect world I'd have the MMM combo in mine and 3-4 sets of enerland based 2s Lipos for it!

Thx, i will try to convince him to not go bigger, but like i said his goal is to have ridiculous power that impress more.

Is the medusa 80mm stronger than a Neu 1515 or 1521?


If he get the Combo MMM castle 2200kv whaty are the best batteries to run that are
6S?

Sorry for those multiple question, i just want to be sure he get the best stuff. :)

Well, I'm doing the same for my e REVO & I am using :

1) Medusa 70mm 1600KV motor
2) 6S Rhino 20C 4900mah lipo
3) MMM
4) Tekno sway bars
5) 17mm hex conversion
6) single servo arm with ACE1015 as steering + stronger servo saver
7) Gearing 58/19 for top speed around 38mph

This setup is about the limit of controllability for me at a track. I can't even go for full throttle at the straight !





REgards,
Joe Ling

I have no idea wich one is better :D
I want the fastest of them, one that you could gear for top speed for some runs and then run it geared for about 50-55mph.

If i can have batteries suggestions also could be great :)

Thx again for any help.

you wont need the 1521, I had a Revo I had geared 38/18 with 6s lipo and a 1515/2.5d it it could run around 50 mph and it was on the verge of being out of control. You could run 6s with a 1515/1y it would be faster but you will have a higher amp draw which will produce more heat

If you do live in france, you got acess to the ehner motors. If you really want nasty (wicked) I could suggest the 2250/10t with an MGM or schultze and up to 8s lipo (Flightpower 4s 3200 or smaller mah, Suggest 20c+) Thats abour a wicked as you can go without going to a gorilla or kershaw chassis. Now that you have calmed him down a bit, I will also say that the Neu 1515/2.5d is a awsome motor on 5s


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
