The 9XL is probably more of a choice to help limit the current somewhat.
I agree though, proper gearing will make the 7XL work just as well as the 9XL.

I know what your saying, I just don't think you should mask the problem by going with a slower motor. The 9XL on 4S isn't gonna be that impressive. If you wanna just keep it all cool, no need for a 9XL, the 8XL would be the better choice.
