That's hilarious. 3 cell lipo huh? 1500kv? Am I missing something?

With those specs, it should top out at about 20-25mph.

You know what the funniest part is? Those guys actually believe it and are buying into it with 3 serious replies in less than an hour.

Also, if he is wrong about the kv, can you imagine how hot that motor will get trying to pull 60+ mph. I am sure that he is running an l can, probably a 6l. I am sure his lipo of choice (maxcraps?) is getting hot too...

That's pretty funny... I'll offer him $100. It'l make a great space heater come winter. 61 MpH...downhill...with a 30mph tailwind!

I can't see where he could have made a typo. Except maybe on the cell count, but it's kind-of hard to miss the "5" or "6" and hit a "3". I trust him on the 1500kv. If it were running on 6s it would make much more sense.

maybe it was 3s in series and he forgot to mention the series part. Still a good typo or just plain BS. i looked and sure enough down at the bottom there linc is setting him straight.
