Default need some advice

My current setup in my honcho is a 4s 1700mah Elite lipo, 21T 550 Titan motor w/ 24 tooth pinion, and a Mamaba Max Pro. Now I'm looking at options for new electronics. I want to lighten it some but keep something close to this wheel speed and torque. I've tossed the idea of going back to a 3s Lipo in it for weight and more options. I looked at the FXR for its size which I like but I need to keep a motor that can handle being dunked in water which is why I'm looking at staying brushed. Would like to get longer run times also out of it but Elite packs are no longer sold so needing to find a need decent lipo for my scaler as well.

Default Nanophosphate's

I am running 3 cell LiFe packs in my comp crawler and I love them. You can charge them FAST, up to 15C without any problems and they run just as long as Lipo's. Also they can handle a 60C discharge rate without breaking a sweat.
You can get them in four cell packs too. Each cell is 3.3 volts. When they are fully charged a 3 cell (9.9V) is really about 10.68 volts. Here's a pic.
