Possible brushless setup (your thoughts)

Alright. What about just going balls out with the 80mm? it's not THAT much more, and if it runs cold. temps are important.

and anyone know how the hw80 will run???

I think the 80mm is a bit overkill. That and you may want to go up to a MMM, not sure how much more power the 80mm will produce. I am figuring the 80 amp model can handle a 7xl (rcm mike has this) so it should do the 70mm motor with reasonable gearing. The 80 mm may have too much torque and blow the tires off too easily and the startup current draw will be more.

Alright well since I only want to do this once... what about a MMM esc, 5s, and a 80mm? I am just thinking for $20 more, i could get a better setup that would run cooler and be funner to drive. Well now i am all confused... I want the setup to run cool, and i don't want it to be putting my esc in jeopardy.

What are you looking at spending on the motor and esc?

If it is more than $240 pm me and I will pass along some info...
