Default novak 5800 crawling?

ok guys I think this is the right area for this question IM building a 2.2 crawler and I have an extra novak 5800 ss brushless system kicking around...would this be an alright setup or am i going in the wrong direction here? I was going to run it on a 2s lipo but that can always be changed...any ideas or comments would be greatly appreciated! thanks

Bad idea. It will absolutely suck for crawling.

No it would overheat and thermal shutdown. Plus you would never find gearing to get it low enough.

5800= 19t motor.
