Something I've been thinking about regarding this, is if anyone is going to use a conventional fast brushless system like a Velineon, observe the C rating of those little flight pack lipos that they use. If you have a system that under load can surge up to 60 amps or more, it won't do a 2000 mah 25C battery much good. You'll need to get either a high discharge flight pack or one of those shorty packs like Badger is using. | |

The metal drivelines are a great feature in this car. Sorry you have had problems with castle, i dont. And no issues whatsoever. I put a mamba max with a castle sct motor the 2400kv 4 pole run it in sand, foffinf with 4s lipo two 2s packs plugged in series no fan on the motor and average temp 30 degrees, after one hour and half the motor was warm to the touch. As for sensored, its best but with castle link set the start throtle curve down to 50% and dont use more than 2 in timing advance settings. Because on 4pole motors you will not gain increase in speed above 2 and you only increase heat. Both lipos used were two turnigy nanotech 5800mah with 40c discharge. With those settings you can crawl with almost no cog, to improve it better you can use one 2s lipo to crawl and bump it to 4s in series for bashing. Cheers Cravo | |

I'm going to research batteries today so I can either order online or buy from hobbytown when I go tomorrow or if you have a link and say "buy this", that might help me! | |

Sensorless Brushless setups should never be in a crawler unless you're just bashing it and want cheap speed... | |

The higher the C rating the more amperage a battery can provide. I would think the stock motor and ESC would be fine on a 25c. Add in an aftermarket motor and high speed bashing and you might want to go higher. |
