    you had good fortune.. those HV systems would be my last choice.

    going cheap: 8xl and MM esc w/ castles BEC (starluck.com has a kit even) about 220
    going a little higher end: snag a Neu 1515 (1y or 1.5d) and the MM esc w/ casles BEC
    going hgh end same motor and a MMM, MGM or similar ESC capable of 6s operation.

    If you're in Canada Id call these guys PLETTENBERG They are in Canada and get the good stuff brushless mototrs, escs etc.., Plettenberg is arguably the finest motor you can get, call them up and ask about the plettenberg maxximum and bigmamxximum with fans. It will come out to about the same cost with international shipping

    it should, just program the escs together then reverse the wires on 1 motor, would probably be the easiest way.

    It will work, but you will need two systems at 145 w/ ship a Y-harness for the esc plugs, a Y-harness for the lipo's and two 3s lipo's vs two 2s lipo's. Not sure what the final would be but I would guess around 500 w/ some true-rc 8k 3s2p lipos (cheaper ones).

    Yeah about $500 with 2x 3s lipos

    VXL system $150 each = $300
    revo Y $3.89
    parallel adapter $10 in plugs

    batteries 9 cell nimh x2 or 3s 5k lipo x2 (8k wont fit)
