Jammin X-1 CRT motor selection

I could get a more expensive motor now, I just do not want to regret it when the monster max comes out. I am limited to 4s with my current esc, and I do not want to buy a new esc until the MMM comes out.

I was under the impression that the motors are closely linked with the input voltage, therefore the motor I'm running now may not be the best option when I switch to 6s, that is why I wanted to go cheap now and go all out when I can move up to 6s.

I do appreciate everyone's help and this seems to be a great forum. I did not mean to come off as abrasive if that comment was directed towards me.

Right on. I'm totally with you, and I'm building based on the same assumptions. I will go to the MMM and a 6s when they come out, but don't want to have a temporary motor. That's why I got the 1940/10 hi amp. It's a lower KV (1500) and will deal very well with the higher voltage later. You might try BrianG's motor calculator too. Very helpful. Here's a link for it:
