Got my 9920/XL1600... -

I got my 9920 and XL1600 today and installed them without any problem. When I first saw the size of the 1600, I was thinking "how can this be faster than 2 775s?" Well faster is an understatement...it screams! I laid rubber on the basement floor! I have a fan aimed at the motor to cool it. I'll post pics when I re-do my PolyMaxx page.
Here are my initial impressions from going dual 775s to brushless:
-The brushless is much more quiet than dual 775s. I kinda liked the intimidating noise of the 775s but it's definitely cool to have a stealthy speed machine too.
-It is a lot easier on the batteries than dual 775s...I haven't tripped my 30amp breaker yet even at full throttle in second gear, so this thing is not drawing much considering the power output.
-It does have minor cogging when crawling a hill very slowly...didn't have any of this on the 775s, but this truck is meant to go fast so I don't care much.
-The breaks take getting used to...on my previous setup, breaks were controlled with my 4th channel.
