jhautz - I was thinking the 1521 based on the sheer weight of the Savage, as AAngel says "the savage is a beast of a truck". I did have some concerns about spool up, but am hoping that the offset of the two speed tranny will help with that. But like you said, it's still going to spool up way faster than the tires can take
And I couldn't agree more that the 1521s sure look good in a truck!!
nl12 - I'll be using 6\7S2P, one 6\7S1P pack on either side. Depending on the overall Kv of the motor I pick, I'll solder may packs up. I'll probably end up building myself a couple of 6S packs for routine running and a set of 7S packs just for the heck of it
zeropintbug - My MT will be solely for bashing and I'll probably end up with 4 packs. Think the 1515 can handle 60 minutes of "continuous" runtime on 6S2P (assuming about 15 minutes per set of packs)?? I know AAngel mentions that his does get "warm", nothing to be concerned about, but warm and my setup is probably going to be 11\12 pounds loaded and ready to run.
AAngle - Any idea on what your Truggy weighs in at? I know my Revo hit the scale at about 9.5 pounds and my 9XL got REAL hot when I really ran it for any length of time. That said, you get what you pay for in quality, hence my desire to step up to the Nues - can the 1515s take potentially 12 pounds for "a days" worth of running?
nl12 - Yea, I'd probably end up with the 1515/2.5D if I go with 6S. If I end up with the 1521 1577Kv, I'll probably go 7S.
zpb - Yea, I though about that as well, running the Nue to its potential would draw a ton of AMPs from a 1P config, will be xS2P for sure. - Would 7S be to much on the 1521s? I've seen mixed messages saying potentially keep the 1521s to about 28\30K RPM or so or is this just to keep the overall power in check??
