What power your Yeti?

Ain't nothing wrong with the SCT pro ESC's. I like em better than MMP's in go fast stuff. Mines paired with the HW 3556 4000kv motor.

I am running the RTR Motor/ESC I got off eBay for my kit build. I will probably get a MM2 for my HPI Apache C1 and move the MMP I have on that to the Yeti. Then down the road finally pickup a Tekin pro4 Hd 3k motor.

I'm running the Holmes Puller Pro BL 540XL 3500kv motor with a MMP, I love what it's done for the Yeti, it feels like a whole different beast now.

I am leaning toward this combo for my Yeti... Are you guys running 3S? 4S? and What gearing?
Thanks!

Just got it installed last night. Still need to figure out the correct pinion. Right now I have a 64t spur and 14t pinion
I should mention that I had a Mamba Max 2 with a castle 1410 3800Kv on 2s and it was not a good combo. Motor got extremely hot just after a few minutes of running. Had a 19t pinion and it was still pretty slow.
For what it is worth a sensored set up is a million times better than non sensored. Might get flamed for this but it is night and day difference.

I could see that. The 3800 doesn't have the power or surface area of other 1/8 scale motors. You don't need to spend a lot to get a lot. My non sensored 4065 Leopard with 2700 kv on 3S is an animal and it cost me 45 bucks plus a 20T pinion and a 56t spur. Runs 120s on 3S and the motor is rated up to 5S. I think going torquy on the motor is a better bet than going high kv. Full on 1/8 scale motors will drop in, why not use them? I think castle had a 2600 kv motor that was used by HPI and rated up to 4S. That would be a monster after proper gearing as well.
