i have a mini inferno st and im wanting to get more speed now. i dont want anything that hits over 40mph cause i dont know what your gunna use that speed for. but i cant deside wether to get the AON 4900 or the hyperion 5000. i was wondering what the speed of the mini inferno st would be with a 8 cell nimH pack a 2 cell lipo and a 3 cell lipo. i would like to know the speed for each motor with each battery. this would really help alot thanks.

OK i have the hyperion 5000 and my brother (leapingbug) has the aon 4900, both are great. With both motors running 13t pinions and 3cell li-pos rated at 24amp + burst the aon pulls a bit down low (not alot, it is know that the 5000 is best ran with a 11t) but the hyperion seems to have a good bit more on top. At the 1/10th track the 5000 and the 4900 seemed like the same motor. We both thought that the hyperion was better due to it being cheaper with the same performance as the 15.00 more aon. Some say that the 5000 runs way to hot but i cant seem to get the thing above 180 at the race track.http://image60.webshots.com/60/3/63/74/2198363740086019057HXKTHb_ph.jpg
