with batteries the e savage is a s heavy as an emaxx. I would second the use of the 11l or 9xl. The mm is a better esc than the velineon, just as smooth and runs cooler. Plus you can run 4s or 12 cells, the velinion will not run 12 cells or 4s. The xl can motors will run cooler than the l can, depends on gearing and desired speed. More info about batter choices and overall budget will help. You will not find a cheaper setup than a mm and an l or xl feigao motor.
