It seems that this system is rather pricey, actually. Cheapest price for it would be ~$270. A Feigao motor is always an option to keep in mind too! An 8s on 8cells would work well, not as fast as the 5300, but good power, and much cheaper ($70). Then a MGM 80amp controller for $185, and the total is $255.
Comparing the Neo/Sphere, it isn't as upgradeable - can't use that many cells, and can only use several motors with it. With a sensorless system, there is much better upgradeability for the future (much better investment, IMO).
