I agree it looks good.As far as set ups go i'd be inclined to go fairly conservative (12-14 cells)as it's quite a short wheelbase.

I wouldn't get the the HV maxx, if you go for a sensorless system you'll have more scope for different motors and cell counts.an MGM or BK controller or maybe the new Mamba maxx would be more versatile.

If you want to go lipo with it i'd recommend waiting for FMA's SkyVolt system(should be available mid september).It uses the cell balancing circuitry(safer) from the scorpion and balance pro but will charge up to 6 cell packs and will be available with the 20c kokam cells.

You could maybe run a pair of 4s in parallel with the Mamba maxx which i think will have LVC for lipo.Not sure what motor,maybe a 9l,any way a pair of 4s in parallel would give you lots of run time with an efficient motor at that voltage.

Actually a pair of the scorpion 2p2s packs in series should work the same and you could just use the warrior 9920 controller.(ask some one else about current draw first though as the 9920 is rated for 99 amps).The scorpion has LVC built in, just daisy chain the LVC connectors for multiple packs.
