Motor Choices for Slash

[BrianG]

lol, 4s on a Slash may sound like a lot, but it's set up for runtime, not speed. It's geared conservatively, and the ESC settings are set mild. I figure it would be more efficient to run 4s @ 5Ah than to run 2s @ 10Ah.

Yup I get your point, But I would rather stick with 3s.

I like the Medusa 3300 on 3s...I used 86/19 and 2 2200 3s batteries in parallel. Runs cool and long.
