One question, what difference is there between running a 1527/1D (2300kv) on 6s and a 1527/2D (1150 kv) on 12s. They'll both be running the exact same rpms, will one get more runtime or pull more amps or something??

The higher the turn on the motor the higher the torque. A HV set up will run more efficient and will require less AMPs to produce the same power the 6S set up would.

One example is, if you want 3500 watts out of both set ups this is what you need to do:

3500/22.2=157.66A (You'll need 157.66A to make the 3500 watts)
3500/44.4=78.83A (You'll need 78.83A to make the 3500 watts)

AMPs is the cause of heat, not voltage. So by lowering the AMPs used, you'll also lower the temps and make for a very long lasting set up. Too bad ROAR can't see the benefits of it.
