Hi guys i am waiting for my brushed e-revo to be delivered

.I want to go brushless in the future and from what i have been seeing on other forums is that quite a few people run ninms with there novak systems where as nobody runs them with the mmm because it eats them.I know i will get told to go lipo but i cant and have to stay on ninms.I am a nitro and gas guy so i know nothing about electric but i am reading up as much as i can but it can frazzle your brain not fully understanding what you are reading

.On youtube the 4.5t seems quite popular but i see you can get a 5.5 and a 6.5 aswell.The batteries i will use will be 3700 7cell 8.4v for the time being and what would be a safe gearing to use so that i dont fry it the first time i use it?Like i say this is going to be in the future when funds allow.Thanks for any info.
