Why not lock it in first???

I had great acceleration but the top end was just a little lacking. 4s with a different motor (~2500-2700kv) would probably be a much better setup for a 1st-gear-only Revo.

I will probably try 4s again soon, but I have so many 3s batteries that it would be a shame not to use them. If I can't find a good setup with 3s, then I'll put the 2-speed back in. I know that works how i want it to. Or maybe I'll get a bunch more 4s packs instead, we'll see :)

Seriously? 3s on a revo is your standard setup??? Thats makin me wonder how that clutch setup will stand up to 4s, 5s and even 6s power that some will throw at it. Have you done any testing with real power in it?
