The savage is a fairly heavy vehicle. That means it's gonna take a decent amount of power to run it at speeds ~30mph+ on 4s. Power= voltage X current.

That said, it's gonna require bursts well over 100A to push that Savage on 4s around unless you gear really low. If you were to run 6s on the right motor, current will be less for a given power. If you want 4s, then I would look for better batteries to be honest.
