Of Course the main "power hungry" thing about any setup is the drive motor. In Comparison, if you add up the consumption of everything else, I'm sure it's hardly 1/10th.

I ran a 2S 750mah lithium pack for awhile. I would only charge it up every couple of runs. You might be surprised how long 2000mah will last when put to that task.

The LVC on alot of factory pcb's is set at 2.4 volts per cell. I have a feeling with High Discharge Lipo, the recommended LVC is so high because we are drawing so much amperage from them. Then we often times want to charge them as fast as allowed.
