To trailranger, Fred B:
By reading your posts, here and at the other threads, I understand you, trailranger, Fred B, along with others, are for single cell set up, and you're against 2-cell lipo set up. Would you be open mind enough to reconsider your position if I can point out where you are wrong? Is it possible that you could be wrong for once, right?
Your statements/arguments are wrong because your information was wrong, or you read my post wrong, to begin with. You've mistaken Momba motor for Mongoose 380 size motor.
We can tell the different motor by saying it's a 380 size, 540, 550...etc.
We can also describe them by their actual dimension, like 2030 meaning the motor is 20mm in diameter and 30 mm in length. A MOMBA motor is a 2030
motor. I don't have Mongoose motor, but I have two 380 motors I used to use them in my micro RS4, one is 2430 and the other is 2632. It looks to me a Mongoose is around 2635. These are all fall into 380size category.

It's a 2435 motor, look at the maximum amp load, 25A.
Look at this:

It's a 2445 motor, 10 mm longer, and its maximum load is 34A
I guess the Mongoose fall in-between those two motor.
Check this motor out:

This is a 4200kv on my Bloody Knife. Its maximum load is only 10A.
This motor and the 5400kv Momba that I have on my Diggity are capable of the same pace of Donny's IIC A-main Stock winning set up. In fact, my Diggity, geared at 16 in pinion and 88 in spur with a 1.72" tires, was only one
second behind Donny at the end of the qualifier.
So I want to ask all of you, Trairanger, Fred B, andrewdoherty and Scottrik to give a try with the smaller motor and then tell me what you think!
FYI, I have more motors coming my way, for those who want to go even slow, two of them are.

It's a 3000 kv motor with a maximum amp. load of 7A

God knows how slow we’re going to go with this motor.
We are going to race and see who will be the fastest of the slow!
