Don't feel worried about using 4s on the MM. After all, the ESC is rated for 12 cells which is VERY close to 4s. At nominal ratings, 4s=14.8 (3.7v/cell) and 12 cells=14.4 (1.2v/cell). Even at right-off-the-charger voltages, it is fine: 4s=16.8v (4.2v/cell) and 12 cells=16.8v (1.4v/cell).

If you already running a Quark, why not just keep it? You say you don't want lots of programming options, but once you set the programming it's done. And the Quark is actually smoother than the MM IMO (I have two of each).

I don't know if I'd go with the MM and a 7XL. Someone else here has had issues with it. If you want to stick with the 7XL, I'd also stick with the Quark.
