I have a Novak Velociti 3.5 Racing Brushless Motor with a Brushless GTB speed controller. I was planning on buying a 7.4V 2S lipo for this car. Now what would be the outcome with this combination?

i know this motor is for on-road but someone gave it to me. Is it worth using it in this car ?

It will be very hard to gear correctly. Even in sedans, that motor needs tiny pinions.

I have a 16T pinion on an 83T spur gear. What would happen if i ran it like this, very slow???

Is it worth trying to gear it or should I just buy another motor?

If you already have the motor and esc, it doesn't hurt to try. Just watch the temps and make sure the motor doesn't go above 170F.

Now its a GTB speed controller. Whats a good motor to use with this speed controller and 16t pinion/83t spur?

You should probably go with a 5.5 turn at the least, keeping in mind that you may have to buy other pinion sizes anyway.

I think im gonna get the velocity 7.5 T http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXMKL9&P=FR How do I find out if/what pinion I need for it?

I would go with a Novak Lite motor. it doesnt have as much torque, but still the same speed as the Veloicities.
