What servo should i put in it? I got a 50 amp ESC and 3600kv motor that says its max draw is 50 amps. Im ONLY going to run 2S lipo... not 3S so I hope this setup will be good enough. The ESC isnt watercooled but im not going to mount it under the radio tray like the stock one is. Im going to mount it beside the motor with double sided tape. I can get a water cooled 60 amp ESC for $20 shipped off ebay so if this one dies I may jsut do that. I also have a spare Traxxas VXL esc with the cooling fan I could try... and further to all THAT... I have a complete traxxas XL5 system (motor and ESC) I could put in there to try out. What would be the best route?
Im not looking for blistering speeds, just fast enough to be fun (a bit faster than stock would be nice) and RELIABLE is the key.
The Brushless motor I bought IS watercooled and my experience with BL systems is that the motor gets hot before the ESC does, is this true with boats also? Ive seen pics of external ESC watercooling kits you strap to the ESC against the heatsink... where can I get one of these? Maybe its better to just get the watercooled ESC. We'll see I guess.
