I don't have an eagle tree so I can't tell you how many amps I'm pulling.

Anyway, I just completed an ST-RR conversion last month. It's running with the TeknoRC Neu 1515 1Y (I took it from the Gmaxx) on 5S Neu 5000mah(2s and 3s in series) with an MMM V3. I'm using the stock 50T spur with a 16T pinion. Highest temps I got were: Motor-130F, ESC-102F, Batteries-100F. Air temp was about 58-60F.

Here's a couple of pics:

Man those are nice temps... It must just be my crapola Feigao motor that gets hot doing a little bit of work lol.

Anyway here's a couple of pics of mine, with the new RCM battery mount. I currently run A123s, either 4s2p or 7s1p.







I will probably be swapping to LiPos as soon as I can decide whether to purchase 4x3s packs, or 2x6s packs, and whether to go 4000mah to keep the weight down, or 5000mah for longer run times. Seeing as how I only need to get between 15-20min, I might actually go for something like 3300mah packs to further reduce some weight.

Also considering ditching the mech brakes. It seems to be a bit of a waste of space, and I really don't notice the difference between having brake bias and not so its just extra weight.

How heavy are your packs?
