1/5th planning. Redcat Rampage & what ESC/motor/LiPo combo?

[KaztheMinotaur]

I run mine with a Leopard 5698 720KV on 12S through a FighterCat 16S 400A ESC geared 9/41. I also have 10, 11, and 12T pinions to try. Kershaw motor mount.

Deffinately has power to spare, LOL.

The FighterCat ESC is holding up well. I added (4) extra 1000uF caps.

I spun a stock wheel hex. I'm planning on upgrading to Bow-Tie Baja fronts all the way around.

The only other problem I am having is pinion durability. Not real impressed with the Robinson Racing "Xhard" pinions. I might have set the mesh a little tight also.
