I've seen the standard 540 sized gear in that car (SP V3 motor and SXX TC/Pearl ISTC) and in both cars they really guzzle those mAh out of the battery.
I've been reading around recently as I've just got a DESC410R and the impression I get is that you should be using 550 + a good powerful ESC (pref. 1/8 speedo). It does start getting expensive but can be kept cheaper with the right gear, like JonyNitro's below, the Mamba Max Pro is a good speedo that handles up to 6S and supports sensored or sensorless motors. Then you've got motors such as LRP or Tekin's 550 5.5T models, both top quality and top spec stuff, that setup would cost around £225. (MMP/LRP).
Don't forget, some good spec batteries are always a good idea too. The way I see it is that your better safe than sorry, i.e. go for good quality, heavy duty stuff over gear that could potentially go wrong!
