Rampage XB-E motor 980 KV ?

[UKBAJA]

if its 980 KV then i believe it should work with 8 S ? or am wrong ? regardless stock ESC can handle or not

the stock esc can't handle the 8s, but yes I think you can use the 8s with the stock motor.

I have used 8s on mine now with the new Castle v2 Xl esc and seems fine.

How is the temp on the stock motor and 8s ?

Didn't go that much higher than 6s around 75 to 80'c
