Not sure if I want to move things around for the HV motors. Plus there out of stock..lol

It might get you there, but there is simply not enough motor mass to efficiently push the Slash 4X4. Its a heavier truck than the 2WD which would be more suited for the 13.5T.

In other words, the Slash 4X4 will be more demanding in the power area and will require a motor that can put out more Watts than a standard 540 size BL motor.

Trust us on this one... But if you insist on the 13.5T and want to try proving us wrong, have at it. We are suggesting a setup that will run more efficient, in other words cooler, and will have the power needed for 2s running while still being able to take a bit more voltage if you want to.
