Default 2650 flux tork and 6s

for those of you who have wondered or contemplated running 6s and the optional 2650kv flux motor it is scary sick! i will tell you that unless you are soley going for speed and want to invest in some road tires it will not do you any good. this set up would be worthless for racing (unless you want to be first to the first jump and end up in the parking lot somewhere). temps are good all around as long as you run batteries with a high enough C rating and enough mah (5000). you will also need to run a fan on the motor, i use the castle wrap around one and motor temps have never gotten above 120F. also you NEED to make sure your speedo fan turns on at 130F or youre in trouble. i put an MIP temp gauge on the speedo to make sure it works.

i will also need to furnish some sort of wheelie bar. i put wheels on the back of the rear fin but the thing almost goes vertical before it hits them? anyone made a wheelie bar for the Vorza?

thanks
