Running lower kv with higher cells will be more efficient and draw less mAh. I personally go for 4s cause I already have many 2s lipos. 1700kv is ideal for 5s. There are guys in the U.S using the Castle 2650kv on 4s for races.
Ya I'm one of them, but 2650 is sorta overpowered for our shorter tracks here in the states. We usually turn them down 30-40% to stay manageable. I recently tried the 2650 on my truggy and it was extremely unmanageable and did wheelies so bad I could almost do back flips at the 100% setting. I got 2 tekins and 1 castle system. They both do a great job but Tekins are cooler running and more one the spot tunable.
