I'm looking at getting an e-revo. but my question is how fast will it be on these lipos with the mmm and what kind of gearing should i use?

I would look for higher than 12c. That would make a big difference in acceleration and top speed. I run 30c and its great.

okay but those are the batteries i already have and someone said they were uderrated,my vxl rustler does 55 with them

(8000 mAh / 1000) x 12c = 96 continuous amps, those should be good to go for it.

so properly geared could it do 45? and theres no way to run it with the tq is there?

It should easily hit 45, never ran a brushless until today, finally put a VXL in my Slash, but 3s + MMM = tons of speed and power.

There is a lot more flexibilty when running a 4S setup than a 6S setup. Because of the high capacity and C rating those should be ok to run providing they'll fit the batt compartments.

Its the batts for 6S setup they get real picky about warning that "When using 3S packs cell quality is very important. Recommend packs with minimum 25C or better".

4S should put you in the 34-37 range speed wise. I'd start with stock gearing and see what kind of temps batts and motor pull. You're planning on the CC combo with MMM and 2200kv motor?

yeah my vxl rustler is crazy fast!!!! but i love my monster truck <3 so why not the best of both worlds right?!!?

You should be able to run the tq - I run my Slash Castle Sidewinder/5700 with teh stock am TQ radio no probs.

yes the CC combo with MMM and 2200kv motor. i just don't want to spennd 600$ then it not work with the tq and have to shell out another 200$
ya know?

Only setup probs I've ever had with a CC esc were always with FM, never AM. What I usually do is get everything up and working on AM using a spare TQ3 radio/rx from a Tmaxx and then after running it a little, convert to FM since I want to run everything I own with a single radio.

You plans should be good.
