Recomened setup! Hurry!

King,

A few are running the Neu motors with MM controllers, but the majority of those that do have cogging problems. Running a Neu with a MM is going to stress the esc.

If you go with an airplane controller, you'll have to arrange for mechanical brakes. To me, it seems that the expense and PITA (present and future) of running mechanical brakes outweights any savings that you might realize by going with the plane controller.

I believe that the BK controllers will only handle two pole motors. The 5.5mm connectors aren't absolutely necessary, but they do work well.

If cost is a big factor, you might be well served by a MM/Feigao 8XL setup.
