Traxxas Slash motor choice question

[rootar]

yes your battery will fit no problem i know 165mm batteries even fit, and id go ahead and get an L can if you get a feagio, i really like my 9L on 3s, gear it for 45mph and no temp problems and runs like a bat out of hell. the medusa 50 is also a good choice just make sure you dont get a motor with too high a KV as gearing down is somewhat limited.

Thank you Rootar, the 9L was on my first choice.
Glade to ear that my TP pack will fit
And should i chance the gearing for the Jato 32 pitch???

On BrianG rc calculator, with a Medusa 50mm, 2200Kv, on 3s, geared with jato 32 pitch 22/58, with 4.4 inch diameter tire, it's arround 41m/h.
So why to go with a 3000Kv motor on 3s???

So you can run lower gearing. I used to run 15/58 gearing in my pede with the 12s feigao.

I did run 18/58 with a 9l, plenty of power and good temps too.
