Re: Options for Brushless Motor Control?

If you want cheap cheap, I reccommend okhobby and hobbyking.

Reliability varies product to product, but I have a lot from both running in a lot of my vehicles.

Sensorless motors are fine for propellers on hobby RC planes, but not so much for your app (a ground vehicle) which requires high start-up torque and acceleration.

Nearly all hobby grade ground vehicles use sensorless brushless motors versus sensored.
