Yeah, that's the problem with the Banebots stuff... at the most, it was designed for 775 motors I think, putting a massive brushless in it can only only end badly!

I shall have a look at the sensored ESCs too, I've found one non-hobbyking ESC that's got instant reverse but it's a little too expensive. Going to trawl through the manuals when I've got chance!

That's fantastic too, thanks! Though I have to say, if I can get that to work with a 2.5kw brushless NTM on 8s... I think that might be the scariest rambot known to man. That's like, 6 horsepower in theory? Crack a massive magnet in there and we're good to go! Perhaps the two-stage would be ideal there as well, though not quite as heavy a reduction...

Would definitely be a good thing for robot combat as a whole too, might make brushless a lot more accessible if it proves similar to high power brushed motors that seem to slowly be dwindling in numbers...
