Hi Guys,

I have a 1/8 bl hsp truggy that I currently run on 3s and am looking to run it on 4s.

It came with 80amp hobby wing ezrun which I believe will handle 4s

The motor is a leopard lbp3660-3000kv...I can't seem to find the specs on this motor.....any ideas??

Cheers

4s is going to be pushing the limit on an 80Amp ESC, you may get away with it in the short term, but IMO, it will fail pretty quickly

A good example would be the GV Cage, they were fitted with a 120Amp ESC originally, and rated to 4s lipo, a lot let the magic smoke out

Hpi fit a 100Amp ESC to there trucks that are 4s capable, even those ESC's let the smoke out occasionally, and that is running a less demanding motor
