Only the Max10 SCT can handle 4s.The Max 10 is a great speed control. I run one in a 2wd Slash and it drastically out performs the factory Traxxas system. More power and it doesn't overheat when you run 3s like the Traxxas system. They do claim it will handle 4s but I wouldn't.
Is your slash 2 or 4wd?
I gear somewhat conservatively and get about 35mph top speed and can run it all day without temp issues. I have geared it for higher speed and if memory serves, 50-60mph is a reasonable expectation but you have to watch the temps.
It is waterproof, not submersible. They should advertise them as water resistant, not waterproof.
Castle Creations also makes a great sct combo for a little more money. Definately more power but the hobbywing stuff seems a lot smoother.
I run an older Castle Mamba max pro esc and castle 2400kv in a 4wd slash and on 3s, I've hit just over 70 before the air overcomes the vehicle weight and sends it airborn . With a different body and some suspension adjustments, it would likely hit 80mph or better.
Keep in mind, my statements are based on my own experience with my own cars and are just opinions. YMMV.
Yes and no.Only the Max10 SCT can handle 4s.
If running 3s, switch to EC5/XT90, Deans can sometimes get melty on 3s.
