Gearing an ERBE for racing on 4s

Shaun, you've got me serious considering 6s, cooler temps sounds great, and while the batts are heavier, as low as they are in my ERevo, it could only serve to lower my CG.

needless to say because you are running the MMM at 100% and most likely running zippy quality batts...you will need to watch your setup.

like i said...i CANT get 6s power to the ground and the maximum i can pull from my revo geared 17/65 is 70A which is well within both the battery and MMM specs.

cool temps and loads of power are great!!
i did some reading a while back and i hear there is a TVS in the MMM that regulates breaking voltage. this being said, with low quality batts i run (the turnigy cells) i set my breaks to not be able to lock up. locking up the wheels on breaking is bad all round, you put huge load on the ESC and batteries and you cant turn the car with the wheels locked anyway!

having that extra bit of throttle left to pull a rolling wheelie on your last lap as you cross the line is priceless too
