I would really like to go to 6S although have my fears. Done my homework and searched a lot, and only got mixed opinions. Essentially i firmly believe that it all come down to the gearing and the weight of the truck/car; may try to gear down a tooth or two om my pinion and try 6S.

Given the same setup would going from 5S to 6S add more amp draw? or the increased voltage would give the more power at roughly the same amp draw?
If I recall correctly the 1717 was offered as a package with the Mamba Monster on the same page, does it mean anything, i dunno. also searching for the answer.

Might do as others have done and get myself a MMXL.
