My mate's Revo runs perfectly with a 7XL, MM with fan & the Maxxamps batt. The battery stays nice & cool, while the MM maintains a consistent 50C & the motor sits at 60-65C max.
I'm trying to understand why alot of you want to spend big on a batt, but, go for cheaper ESC's & low kv motors, it just doesn't make sense to me. Maybe I'm just too much of a noob with BL systems, although, I have had my RC18 R for a while with a 9200kv powered by a 11.1v 3s 20C. It's stupid fast & have no heating issues.

if you use high voltage, you could get away with lower mah packs... the weight is about the same.. with the higher voltage and lower KV motors, it makes it a whole lot easier on the ESC.. that's mainly the reason why I run high voltage.... I'm not too worried about the motors, just the ESCs...
you can't compare them tiny 300 size motors to the 540XLs... :)
