According to BK's website the specs are:
1950/7 Motor LMT RPM per Volt 1867 (@6S, 1867x22.2 = 41447)
1950/9 Motor LMT RPM per Volt 1452 (@6S, 1452x22.2 = 32234)

Given those specs and comparing it to the stock nitro engine which I believe is rated to ~33Krpm I would've thought 1950/9 (with stock gearing) motor would only get it going top speed as stock (although getting there much quicker). I also have the high/low gear settings to play with in addition to tweaking the shift point on the 2 speed - so hopefully that'll keep heat down on accelarations from stop.

Either way this motor is getting a heat sink and a fan!!

Thanks for your input.
