Brushless setup for custom E-sav...

Hello there, this is my first post here, so I'd like to say hi in general and introduce myself. I've got a few brushless vehicles, namely a Kershaw Maxx/Revo hybrid and a mean MLST2, but nothing really up there with the big leagues.

I'm looking to finish off my first decent big bl build, a Hotbodies E-zilla (more recently recognisable as an HPI E-savage) which I will admit is not the obvious first choice for a powerful brushless build. However, with a few changes it can be made far more suitable.

This one is longer, wider, with a radically different suspension setup (well, compared to stock), much stronger in the drivetrain department, and when fitted with the brushless will be setup with the motor mounted centrally and lower between the tvps with a center gear drive from Kershaw.





I'm already running on 4S with the stock setup, and am very impressed with the power they provide. Obviously top end is stunted with the brushed motors but it wheelies like a champ even with the extended wheelbase. Lipos are Venom 5000mah, supposedly good for 100 amp continuous draw and haven't given me any reason to suppose otherwise, stay stone cold and I haven't actually managed to flatten them down yet. Mostly because I don't use a LVC at the moment and won't risk it, but also because it runs for so damn long.

Other stuff, 19 inches long overall, 18.5 inches wide, just (just) over 4 kilos locked and loaded with lipos. Running A DX3-R system in it.

Anyway, that's the truck, I need help with selecting a decent setup for it. I have some ideas concerning an MM and a Medusa motor but was wondering if it is worth getting the MMM as I plan on getting an E-revo later and running Neu power with big voltage in it. Will the 2200kv Medusa V2 be enough on 4s lipo? And is the Mamba max a suitable controller for it, or should I hang on till the teething troubles are over with the Monster Max and pick one of those up? Or have I missed something somewhere and there is a better motor/esc combo for this application?

Thanks for any help and I hope to stick around here for a while. I find the high voltage builds particularly... Intoxicating.
