Thanks for the input patrick.... I just want to clear up a few things...

I understand the 1520 motor is rated to 60,000 rpm. I also understand, that even though it is rated to withstand those rpms it is ideal not to run near its limit.

So obviously the motor would prefer 8s as the motor will be rotating at 47,360rpm which is well within the capabilities.
I would also most likely run it on 8s most of the time.

BUT

I will occasionally want to run 9s (most probably just on tarmac for high speed runs) and according to the R/C Calculator, Rpms will be rated at 53,280rpm at 3.7V per cell.... At 4.2V per cell it will be 60,480 rpm....

I know this is right on the limit, but shouldnt these neu motors be able to manage this? I would most definitely have the punch control enabled and most likely use the new software with the traction control.

Should this be ok for occasional 9s runs? I heard of people using 10s with the 1520 on occasion!!!! (i wouldnt do this as its not really necessary)

Plus i would not get the 8s ESC, i am going to wait for the 12s ESC... So the 12s ESC should easily be able to handle what ever i throw at it, rather that running on the limit all the time with the 8s esc...

Also partrick....

Could you give us approximate pricing for the 8s and 12 esc when they release?

THANKS
