Half the voltage, twice the KV.
Sounds good to me.

You'll be about 600Kv short of the standard setup, the 6s motor is 1880Kv but it shoudl be ok if you run it with the 19T pinion

With 18t, on a fresh pack you'll be turning 3000rpm, and only 2700 end of pack.

With 19t those go up to 3200/2850

If you're okay with these headspeeds you should be fine. But if you already have the Scorpion 1880 motor coming, why not use it?
