About the 4HP thing: You have to remember that 4HP on a nitro engine is usually at or near max rpm. At lower rpms, there is MUCH less power. Electric HP feels wayyy different than gas engine HP. With electric, you have max torque right at 1rpm, so it feels MUCH more aggressive. IMO, "electric 4HP" would give you grief from blown diffs, twisted axles, etc. Like jhautz said; 6s lipo, 1515 2.5d, and MGM ESC would do well.
