I will be testing it in my buggy using 4s and 1512/2d. And with the way I have it geared (46/15), that motor should pull close to as much current as a Med70 or Med80.

Late last night, I removed the Quark and ESC mount from the buggy and test-fitted the ESC. It fits, but barely. If the chassis has any flex, the battery tray will touch the ESC PCB - that's how close it is. I've been wanting to change things anyway, so sometime soon I'll be getting a new motor mount and a single battery tray. And I'll be getting a new 4s lipo pack. Dual 2s2s 8Ah MA packs are simply too heavy.
