I am torn on buying the 2000kv leopard combo with the 180A esc, or if I should buy separately and buy the 2200kv and 180A esc...

Is it really going to make a big difference? I am going to run 4S but on occassion run 6S for speed runs

thanks guys

Like I was told that's way to many rpms... at 2000kv x 22.2 = 44400 rpms and 2200kv = 48400 rpms as aposed to 14.8 = 32560 for the 2200kv and 18.5vlts =40700 rpms

There is no single motor which will give high performance on both 4S and 6S. The voltage spread is too much. Even on 4S the 2200 Kv motor is marginal in a cat if you want much run time. On 6S both motors are too much. Decide if you want to run 4S or 6S and get the appropriate motor...or get two, one for 4S and one for 6S.

so what kind of run times can i expect to get out of a 5000mah 4S setup on the 2200 kv? Kinda just playing around recreationally...but ofcourse haulin so a$$ in between

also the quality of your batteries will have a bearing on run times
