Default Noobie with esc + Lipo

Hi, could some one please tell me if a Turnigy 3 cell 11.1v 2200mAh 20C discharge with 30C burst would be ok to run this esc and motor.

It's on Ebay Item number: 170810915410

Thanks in advance for any help.

That lipo will put out 44 amps constant.
2200 mah = 2.2 amps x 20 = 44 amps constant.

The esc and motor can both ask for more than that. I would look for a higher capability lipo from them. Turnigy lipo's are good. Turnigy nano techs are better, can't remember if they have a 3 cell nano but look into it.
You may overheat and puff that lipo depending on the weight of the vehicle. More weight, more load.

thanks for answering my question. It saves me wasting my money on something that would be no good. I will look at a higher mAh lipo

cheers

That ESC/Motor is a 1:10 combo. That lipo is meant for small planes, helicopters, and 1:16 models.. You'll need something decent to power that combo. 4000-5000 mAh, 30+C.
