BL Motor for Rustler

I also have a modded mm with an external bec. That I'll be able to run 4S and 5S on if needed.

I want to get this thing to 80mph and I've seen a few do it with 4S and the velenion motor 3500kv I think. I'm thinking about the medusa motors 4800kv and the 3300kv or the velenion.

Does anyone have any sugestions to me for the BL motor that will get me to my goal?

I am hoping to gear for 80mph on 4S, and run it on 2S and 3S while bashing. Any tips are appreciated. thanks.

I'm pretty sure that he was using the velenion motor and I'm wondering if the medusa will be a better option or not.

it would be a much better option, the Medusa will have more torque which would enable you to gear up more with less heat issues

Yes the medusa is a much more powerful motor. Sunny has recently tested on 6s with the medusa and its veery fast.
