hey, do you know what would have more headspeed, this or 4000kv turnigy, i am confused with the whole kv thing

@helipilot94,
I am running a 3700kv on an 11 tooth pinion, the 4000kv on the same pinion will yield a higher headspeed.
kv is Revolutions/Volt. So a higher kv is a faster rpm with Voltage being equal, Hope this helps.

@abbnormmal yes i understand. It also means that you need a bigger esc. Ill get one if i need one
I would say that you should be fine with a 40 amp ESC, mine pulls well under 40 amps (25 amp range, with spikes in the 30s) and there is only a 300kv increase with your motor choice.
@abbnormmal ok. sounds good
