welcome to the forums!!

the quark is a nice controller but has had some problems running 5s. it will probably overheat pretty easy.

i cant say much about the bks other than not TOO many people run them...

most people run quark on 4s or if they are going more than they they go with the mgm 16018.

currently i have a crt with a neu and mgm controller (neu is 2700kv) and 4s lipos. this setup is INSANE! its extremely fast and never overheats. i can go through both of my batteries (about 30 minutes of runtime) and the trucks temps are amazing.

i HIGHLY reccommend saving your money and getting a nice setup from the beginning. if you go with a feigao and a mm esc you will probably end up wanting a better more reliable setup later.

some have found that it is a nice setup but in my opinion if you have the money go with the better more expensive setup.

i had a hv 6.5 setup in my supermaxx and it was OK. i ran it with 16 cells nimh and the thing overheated very quickly. it had nice torque but it really wasnt all that fast. again... i would not reccomend this setup only because it is not the fastest on the block (the mm and 9xl will be faster)

hope this helped at all.
