I just put one in my dads 4x4 slash. I only saw it run for about ten minutes it was fast. Cant remember what KV it was, and he's outta town & cant remember either. Didn't notice any heat issues. Plus the castle is a 4 pole, so more to torque. Was using 3S

I remember reading somewhere that the Velineon esc won't handle the castle 4pole motors for too long. Reason being is that esc is designed for 2pole motors. That's what I read at least.

That does remind me. At top speed with the throttle pegged, it did stutter. But only slighty, I thought it might be the slipper clutch.

Dont do it !! Castle told me that the velineon ESC cant hanlde the load of a 4 pole motor . I personally think the velineon can barley handle the valeneon motor .Ive seen a lot of problems with the traxxas esc's . THEY ARE JUNK
