Anyone know what the max rpm for this motor is? I know castle says 2 and 3s, anyone ever run it on 4s?

All brushless should be around 30k RPM for best effeciency and life span.

That said.. I wouldn't take any of them past 50k RPM on a regular basis, a couple speed runs maybe but not normal or heavy use. If you do plan on having issues over the haul.
