Well il say its cheaper getting the 2200kv and 4s lipos for a Truggy or a 2000kv on 4s . But if you want to run 20 min + mains you have to get a big 4s that has weight to it.

With a high mah rating if you dont want to change your lipo during a pitstop which is a time waster !

So from what i heard from some guys on here they run a 1900kv for runtime and cooler running i think you run a (5s) on them or a (2000kv on 4s_. Which i heard is better than a 2200kv for torque and runtime the (2000kv on 4s) im talking about.

But i think getting a 2000kv on 4s is cheaper since its less money on the lipos than buying higher cell lipos and less weight also maybe not though .

Are you running with nitro Truggys ?

I dont know a lot about a 1900kv motor but if you want runtime and cooler running than i would run that not the 2200kv.

im not going to running with the nitro guys...im going to be racing indoor over the winter so im going to convert my truggy for the winter.

i should have mentioned, but i am running 60c Reedy 5500mah lipos on each car

Oh ok yea run the 1900kv that should have plently of torque for a indoor offroad track. What cells are you running on ?

4s.....i know with the 2200 i can run a 8min main charging roughly half back. im not worried about the run times since we are running 6min heats with 8-10 min mains...just about the power

I tried a 1900kv in my MBX6T and it wasn't enough motor. A 2000kv works pretty good and would probably be great on indoor tracks. I run outdoor larger tracks and am currently using the CC 2200kv. If it's too much for indoor you can cut back on power using the Castle Link.

I ran a 1550kv tekin, 4 cell, properly geared on a medium out door and did just fine. Its all what your comfortable with. If you have time try both. Your the driver, internet opinions are a dime a dozen.
