Zippy 5s (probably lower mah then the 4s would be)

Which setup would run cooler? with the 4s i would get more runtime, but the 5s i will get more power. if I can get a nice 4s setup for considerably cheaper, i will have no problem with the power. But if it's not much more, then why not? Don't know how many mm/kv motor to run on the setups. With 5s i will probably run the MMM, but the Hw150 is still up for grabs.

If you gear for the same speed you will have the same total draw. Personally I would stick to the 4s setup with the cheaper esc. It is just a buggy, not much tire/wheel weight there. Plus you do not really want a big heavy lipo in there, will just upset the balance and cause more draw and heat from the weight.
Plus 4s will be cheaper than 5s, both esc and lipo. I would get a medusa 60mm 2200 motor and a 4s 5000 25c lipo. A decent power supply and charger are a good investment for electric, maybe put some money towards that first.
