The Integy hubs get rid of the tie rod weight and make diff and shock maintenance easier. Also opens up room if you want to run LST shocks. It's just nice to get them out of the way since they aren't really needed.
I may just rethink the idea then. I was planning on the 1521 1900kv running 6s. I just dont want all the extra stress on the drivetrain.

A 1521 1y (1577kv) on 6s would be a better choice than the 1900kv 1521. These motors will make some power, that is for sure.
