The diff gear and top gear are indeed steel. There's a plastic idler's in between. Is it wise to replace it with a steel one? (since metal-on-metal gear's wear fast)

I can only run 8 cell's max, since the charger can only charge 8 cell's.

I have swapped them round in my truck - i tried the 5300 a few days ago.

It's still incredibly quick, but the 6S is even faster. Longer runtime though, and less weight.

It has a sufficiently high Kv rating to be able to go very fast on only 6 or 7 cells, too.

Maybe think about the 7S? The 6S is quite insane but the runtimes are pretty short.

a 7 or 8S on 8 cells would be a lot of fun.

And a lot cheaper =)
