Man, this forum doesn't get too much traffic looks like. I decided to go with a Orca VX3 esc and it is on the way to me. So I am trying to decide on which motor to run now... I am wanting to go with a Trinity D4 17.5 for the stock class I will be running in. I am just a little unsure about the Short stack motor version (17.5 1S). Can someone explain to me a little more what I would need to do when running this motor.
1. Can I run 2S lipo? or will 1S be just as fast as 2S with the ss motor?
2. what gearing (pinion) should I start with with the t4 spur
3. Is there anything that I need to be nervous about when running this motor? I want something that is dependable and I don't want to be worrying a lot about it. I was about to buy it and someone said if I am not real familiar with the short stack motor that I probably shouldn't get it. And that is just making me wondering if I should just go with the regular D4 17.5. Any advise is appreciated.
