Default CC with crawlmaster

i currently have AX 10 with a goat system in it. i'm running a venom 3000 6 cell pack. And i get a run time of right around 2 hours. i'm thinking of changing over to the mamba max with a crawlmaster motor. as well as upgrading to lipo. but i do not know what the run time will be with a small lipo pack ( 2100 2 or 3 cell maxx amps). as well as how that combo will perform. i would like to keep te same run time if i could.

I got 2 hours + out of a 3c 2100 with a 35t warrior and a MM. Runtime's down now to about 1 hour 15 min with the 10t cobalt puller, but I'm almost completely certain the crawlmaster is more efficient than either motor. I'd still advise a brushed motor. Handwound lathes and cobalt pullers are the only way to go, you'll like having reliable start-up.

If you already have a goat, why not stick with it? Going from a goat to a crawlermaster you will have less than half the wheelspeed, and the startup won't be as smooth either. Why not just get a 2s lipo pack to go with your goat?

only 2 hours from a 3k cell? I have the goat with a 7cell elite 1500 from HH and get a solid 1.5 hours with butter smooth power and decent wheel speed. 13t pinion 87 spur 5645mg servo.

Throttle finger and terrain have a lot to do with runtime. At my farm I can get 2 hours on a 2100 pack. In riprap I would be lucky to get 25 minutes with the same setup.
