Ballistic 550's a reality

NovakTwo, how about asking Bob about this. IMO running these motors in a 1/8 buggy type setup, with a low KV value, 2000kv, or under, on 4s, will either run slow, or get to hot. I understand wanting such a KV, but from my experience with your motors, they do better making their power with rpm's and gearing lower, then gearing up, and having the motor pull more.

So I guess my question would be, what would be the ideal KV for a 1/8 scale buggy on 4s? Or at what KV range do the HV motors see the highest efficiency?

Good question; I have forwarded this to Bob and Adnan.

Busy day today; we are sponsoring two races this weekend at which we plan to do more Kinetic Havoc Pro SC Beta testing. One is the SC race at WCRC.

I'd like to know aswell. Been wondering the same thing.
