Ok so I can use a no spark thing on the XL, that's good to know, so am I to take it that the consensus is that the 1717 on 4s Lipo using the high speed idler is less than ideal and I should go 6s, gear more conservatively (say 35-40mph) to keep the amps down? Won't I then perhaps have the issue of an undergeared brushless motor running hot?
