Can I interject young fella?

That 1717 on 4S is very slow. If you run it on 6S it's got a comparable RPM to that of a nitro & RPM means better speed.

1717 = 1580kv x 14.8 = 23384 rpm
" " = " " x 22.2 = 35076 rpm

I see you're running 2 packs, so, why not run two 2200mAh 6S still light & balanced yet superbly fast.

Your choice, I just thought I'd throw you some ideas.

Nice setup by the way. A little more complex than mine, but, I only made mine for fun & games. Very cheaply I might add!!

Good luck with the build & keep the updates & pics coming.

Just had a look at this again. Just letting you know i race with a CC 1520 in my truggy on 4s lipo. I've just geared up up pretty far. (MBX6Te w/ 46t spur, 23t pinion) I don't really care about the runtimes as i can last the quals (10mins) and in the mains (20mins) i would have to do a battery change anyway.

if i were to buy the motors again i would've gone with something other than my tekins. Also i'm not too keen on the RX8 esc.

Personally i would go with a CC 1515 2200kv in a buggy. everyone at my local track is running one of them (well pretty much everyone) but i don't think anyone's running a 1512 or equiv.
