Maxxin - i was using the mamba micro pro esc and 5400 before.... this is 600 kv more and due to the larger can and shaft has way more torque! this is intended for much heavier 1/16th! this will give me around an extra 7200rpm at 11volts and will enable me to run 17-19t pinions mayube more and still be underworked!

Rcdude 4051 - thanks my friend!

Fasterrcs - i was runing high 40's low 50's with the old mamba setup and a 16t pinion now i plan to run 19t or better and i will have an extra 7200 rpms overall so this should net me well into the 50"s easy

If you guys want to check out tons of pics of the build you can see them here -
