The only problem I can foresee with that combo is that the bec is known to be a little weak on the MM2, and I believe factory setting is 5.5v. Just something to consider

Perfect dropped in on the talion right?

That will work in the Talion just fine, i also know Mamba Monster 2 ESC and their 2200kv motors work well, HPI's ESC and Motor for the Vorza Flux work fine as well (they are rebranded Mamba Monster 2's)

Okay not sure if I should start a new thread or just ask here because I don't want to take over someone else's thread but what would be the main reason for doing a motor and escape upgrade. Is it for more power or a reliability upgrade.

I was going with the castle but
Man programming is a pain in the (behind) for me
And i don't like complicated staff
Like hobbywing it comes with the program card
Goes something like

Click1 adjust
Click2 adjust
Click3 adjust
Click4 adjust

Simple :D

Its ok to post ask question if its about the same thing
My main reason for me getting this combo

reliability that blx esc have issues on it
I could just get the max8 ezrun esc and use the stock motor
But i figured ill just get the combo and have spare motor for the talion

And then i think i have seen a better motor combo than max8 lol
Its for 1/5 scale i think?
Wonder if i can use that big 1/5 scale esc motor combo
That should really push this talion

Oh i should have said some
Not all have issues with the blx
But this talion will be sent to 3rd world country(no spare parts everywhere)
And i don't want to have that problem later on
Want to make sure everything is working flawlesly

Would this combo run much cooler than the stock motor combo?
Or would i need to change gearings on the talion to keep it cool
Philippines is very hot around 95 deg
And running on the sand let say about 105?
