I want your opinions on what you are running and how it runs for you, this is going to be a basher but may turn into a track truck. I'm looking for motors under 200.

My set up will be a mamba max pro (maybe mamba monster) w/bec or reciever pack if needed and 4s lipo in a mugen mbx5t.
First, I would use the MMM not the MMpro. I know it can handle 6s, but, the MMM is a bit heavier duty IMO and would handle the weight of the truggy much better. I run a MMP in my Ten t and it is very light. ( I run a MBX5T w/a 1520 castle and a MMM on 5S and it is perfect)

As said above for a 4s set up the castle 2200kv combo is tough to beat. Or a Tekin T8 esc w/a Tekin TT2360 2250kv motor for a silky smooth sensored set up.

Either option is a great choice.


1. MBX-6 T8 1900KV, RX8 ON 4S
2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
3. MBX-5 ONROAD CONVERSION 1515, MMM ON 5S
4. MRX-3 ON ROAD CONVERSION 1512, MMM ON 6S
5. TEN T 2650 T8, MMP ON 3S
