Maxamps are no better than the true rc cells, and neither is going to keep up with a a setup geared for 55 mph...

Sounds like you over amped the esc. Amp draw of the 1.5d on 6s with that gearing is going to be high. You may have a faulty fet, and that is what smoked. I would say that it would be better to gear the 4s setup up to reach higher speeds.
