ss4300 is a lower rpm motor designed to replace stock brushed motors. It is pretty much useless though because you can limit the rpm on the bigger 5800 to the equivalent power output. FYI, the numeric naming of the these motors is based on the rpm per volt- so a six cell 7.2 volt will allow 41760 rpm and the 4300 will allow 30960. The stock setting on the 5800 gives out 29000 rpm... I have the 5800 and love it! Just make sure to follow their guidelines on pinion spur usage- it can overheat and shut down...

Thanks briandf21 for the info. Is that mean that I can set the 5800 to perform like the 4300? Just curios because Im still a newB.

You will get faster and better performance out of the 5800 - I have one. It is a good setup for beginners to brushless.
