Cogging is what your thinking about, and this goes to cost again...low cost motors and controllers tend to have SEVERE cogging issues at low throttle

NEU 6pole motor with a MGM or Caste Creation MM or MMM can compete with many sensored setups. If i can get a 1500kv sensor less BL motor to go 0.2 mph on a crawler....Completely unrelated...i honstly believe sensorless BL motors will be the way...they are already proving to kick more butt on the tracks
