RE: Savage XS or Slash 4x4?
im thinking of getting this esc (http://www.brushlesshobbies.com/80A-...mer_p_112.html) because of all the great reviews, what motor should I pair with it? Im thinking somewhere between 4,200 and 5000 kv? Anyone know any motor that is the best bang for the buck in that range? Im looking for something thats around $50-60.

hpi's esc is a rebadged sidewinder that is out dated and way over geared imo just get the kit and drop in the traxxas vxl.

i bought the cooling fan cuase it didgoto stage 1 thermal shutdown one time but she was getting pretty hot and i was using a crappy venom battery. when i bought the fan i bought a new battery duratrax oynx 25C 4000mah 2s. much more power and better quality then the venom battery that venom battery is noww for my tamiya lunchbox lol. that got a Xl-5 esc that i had for about 2 years and a super pro modd motor.
