What wheels (rims&tires) are you running? 4 Amps will probably be enough to get it going so you can decide if you want more after some drive time.

Odds are it'll be ok but that'll depend on exactly what servo and wheels you run.

Depends how much low speed maneuvering you think you'll be doing I guess.

Lots of low speed stuff, you'll want an external BEC. Otherwise I'd guess it'll be fine. Really depends on the servo and it's power consumption needs.

Tribute wheels and tires you need a bec and servo cranked up a little to turn them babies with ease and speed.

Especially if your crawling those wheels and tires hang up easy cuz of the size but let you tackle nearly any terrain

Also if your crawling with those rims and tire you may wanna go brushless crawler motor
