Alright. This seems like my setup, just have to sell a few things before i start buying.

Good luck with it. Will be interesting to follow up and see how the components behave in a heavier truck.

I have the Mega ACn22/30/2 in my truggy and it runs nice and cool. I have a 14T pinion and 49T spur. The diffs are from the buggy so they are 3.3 ratio. I tried a Feigao 7XL with 4S and it ran hot. You will be amazed on how a well geared Mega will run.

Hopefully it will all work out. I am working on pricing right now.

Hmm ...interesting. Such a light and small motor in a truggy and no temp probs. This really sounds amazing. I never would have considered such a light motor in a truggy. I thought a Neu 1512 is already some kind of a light wheight in a truggy. it performed very well in my truggy but was more on the hot side when compared to the Neu 1515. Those Mega 22/50 seem to be tempting for bigger projects.

I was impressed as well. I was going to put it in a buggy, but I just had to try it in my truggy. Too bad my Schulze 18.97 didn't last long enough. I did put my little old 18.61K and this little guy is having fun. Let's hope it'll last longer then his big brother.

Wow! I am surprised that the 18.61 can handle the 70a motor pull.

The burst rating of the controller is 81A and I tested today and it only pulled 61A with me holding it down a bit (Don't try this at home kids). It left some nice marks on my wooden floor. BTW max amps it pulled with the 18.97 was 75A.
