I'm running 12s righ tnow using the CC ICE 160 HV with the CC BEC pro (neu 2220 1y 550kv) and it wants to wheelie at high speeds.

I cant wait for the XL combo to come out. I miss reverse and my mech brakes are having a hard time stopping 30 lbs of truck.

I'm planning on getting another baja for my son and installing the XL kit in that for him to drive around.

Why did you say there waasn't much of a power difference between the 8s and 12s setups?

93mph eh? Nice target. :)

The reason the power isn't much different is because the 8S controller uses a 1.9 milliohm FET, and the 12S controller uses a 3.1 milliohm FET.

So the 8S controller handles more current, the 12S controller more voltage.

It ends up being a wash in the end -- both controllers handle about the same number of watts (power.)

Thanx!
