Are you set on 4s or could you go higher, 6s would be killer and allow you to gear down some, which seems to help regardless of the motor type.

Not sure if you noticed, but the chassis braces are set wider on the new emaxx than the old one. Maybe a direct to diff setup would fit? An idea?!

I plan on using the Quark, so 6S is an option. Motor temps are going to determine if 5S or 6S will be the "settling" point.

Here's the 2826/8 wind on 4S with a 36 tooth spur

Tire Diameter (inches): 5.75
Tire Ballooning (inches): 0
Motor Current Draw: 0
Motor coil Ω: 0
Spur/Pinion Ratio: 1.44 : 1

Total Motor Speed: 16724 RPM
Vehicle Speed: 38.23 MPH (61.4km/h)
Effective Speed Rate: 2.58mph/V (4.15kmh/V)
Effective KV Value: 1130

Here's the 2826/10 on 6S with the 40 tooth spur
Differential Ratio: 2.84
Transmission Ratio: 1.83
Other Ratio: 1
Spur Tooth Count: 40
Pinion Tooth Count: 25

I think it would kick Arse!

Sounds like a good setup, either way. My Emaxx will stay stock until I can finish the other conversions I have sitting around. Going to convert a Losi aftershock and use an 1100kv kb45 inrunner on 9s lipo thru a hv85 esc. Stock tranny and 2 speed so it should be plenty fast!

YES.. it's plenty fast.. I'm running the 1000KV on 12S 3700mAh Lipos on my LST...... and it's super duper fast... but snow is melting fast.... I will get videos on a nice day...

8S1P 5000mAh 25C Lipo & 1800kV KB45 on MGT, and 8S1P 5000mAh 25C Lipo & 1000kv KB45 on GST 7.7...

Those KB45 are just great motors for the price... just gettin' the pinions sucks monkey butt... but thank God I got myself a lathe...

Good to know aqwut, any chance you could shoot a few pics of your lst so that I can see how you did it? Also what esc are you using in the lst and your 15l powered t maxx?

OH, and I am married guys, just buy what I want anyway. I made sure that the wife knew that about me before we got married.
