Jeepers... Thanks guys, a really good bit of insight from two fellas that clearly know their stuff... It sounds all a little too detailed for the level I am at right now, so i will continue with the 70T right now..

Ive just got some new Lipo's waiting at home for me, 6400 90C compared to my lest set of lips at 4200 45C, so i am expecting quite a bit of difference?!

I have been reading about the whole current pulls of the various motor, esc and lipo configurations which I have found very interesting, untilI get to the Thunder Power motor I have, and I can't seem to find how many amps it pulls. With my lipo and esc (Toro 1s 120A) I am covered, but would still be very interesting to know.

I hadn't appreciated how little my current lipo at (4500 45C) was falling some way short of my Esc's potential burst current, as long as I understand all this right...

I assume all you regular experienced guys know the ratios of how tees elctrics pull etc? Of course the gearing and load placed on the motor has to be taken into account, if anyone knows of any good websites that cover all this, would be very interested. I have a desire to understand the mechanics, not just being told, "do this" as I have mentioned earlier in this thread..

Sorry, waffling on,,, but all interesting stuff thats for sure.

Best Wishes

Stu
