On 4s I would be looking at the Tekin 2000kv if you want to run a truggy motor, it would have gobs of hp and should run cool enough geared properly. The 1550 on 6s I think it would be too much again, that motor would run cooler imo with a 5s battery plus it would be much easier to gear properly. If you really want to run 6s I would go with the Tekin 1350kv truggy motor, now that setup would give cool running and longer run times. than 4s.
As I would be racing from time to time, I would be bashing around with a few friend a fair amount of the time as well. I would split it at a 50/50 kind of a deal. Having said that, I feel like going for 2250 (4s) or 1550 (6s) just because they have higher top speeds at normal gearing compared to their lower kv counterparts. I feel in a choice between 2000kv overgeared for the same speed as a 2250kv on normal gearing, 2250kv with normal gearing sounds like the better option, would you agree? Of course this is just my opinion, and as I said earlier, I do not have a whole lot of knowledge on the matter, so do let me know if im missing something.
between the choice of the 4s vs 6s setup, which one should I go for keeping in mind ill be bashing half the time as well. I havent bought any electronics or batteries yet, so none of that factors in.
