My Brushless Muggy Project : input please :)

[The Cow]

Hello Everyone,

This is my first time posting here but i have been lurking in the shadow for a long time :) . Looks like you guys talk alot of bussiness and leave the drama behind.... My kind of forum. My name is Heath I go by The Cow on many RC forums. I will apologize for the ridulously long post i tend to be the king of useless information
It seems there is alot of experience here on this subject so I hope to benefit from some of your knowledge if you guys could be so kind I have a few questions if you don’t mind In reference to the conversion I am putting together…. and let me know if I am on the right track or there is a better track (set up) in relation to my goals… THANKS!! I have read every muggy post here :) Bl and most all even on the nitro....
Although I am a newcomer to 1/8 BL conversions I am no newcomer to r/c or fabrication. ;) I am looking to build a durable…. Lightweight roller for a MUGGY, of course (electronics will be heavy) It is already paid for and a week or two away! I am only a parking lot basher…. This veh will rarely see off road anything more then some grass nothing to dirty... I know i am a chick . I will be fabricating my own 8-10mm 2mm weave carbon fiber chassis, separate center support brace, and all servo-battery hold downs etc unless the one i show below is more feasible although there is alot of weight to be saved there IMO ( i know it is a killer chassis regardless ) I will not be happy with less than 55mph minimum when lightly geared and running cool as could be! I mean cool electronics through the whole run being used.... actually I would like to be able to run multiple packs with out hesitation or much of a cool down as I do not expect to get long runtimes with this set up… 15-20 minutes or so? However I would like the ability to gear up for some crazy 60+ maybe 65mph+ runs if I want to watch the heat issues and deal with cool down periods… While I do not want to throw away cash on useless stuff I will not be looking to skimp or cut corners to save money…. A little too much is always just right in my book
While nothing is set in stone ( i have only purchased the muggy) this is what I am thinking rite now.


Here is what I am thinking as of now….



Setup #1. This is my preferred idea I know it will Have violent torque although I am wondering if I will get the speeds I desire and stay cool at the same time…



1. NUE 1521/1.5D I know this will fit on the rc-monster mount I plan to use but can I fit the finned version?

2. Mamba monster – I believe the bugs are just about gone and I just love the software….would be hard to convince me on any other esc

3. Flightpower evo30 4500mah 6s or evo25 4900mah 6s Do you think it pays to go for the evo 30… I would think it would equal a cooler system although less runtime just not sure if its necessary



Setup #2 I like this too and it gives me the option to move up to 6s although I feel this may be too hot of a setup on 6s and I question the durability of the electronics and veh at over 60,000 rpm L



NUE 1521/1D assuming I can fit a finned version….
Mamba monster
Flightpower evo30 or 4500mah or evo 25 4900mah 5s or possibly 6s just not to confident this will be a reliable trouble free setup all those kv's


I look foward to your input
