I'm planning on going brushless for the first time, i'd have done it earlier, but i didn't have that kind of money until my summer job this year :D
So... the question is, what would be a good all around motor to start with and what ESC to acompany it? I'm looking for mild-modefied power, i'd rather have equal power to what i have now and longer run times as oppose to more power and equal run times.
I don't know why, but i've been looking at the Aveox motors more than 'the others'... good choice?
I'd like it to be a direct bolt on change from a 540 if possible, 1/8th shaft, etc...
Sensored, or not? I will be running it in an outboard, so i was thinking sensorless because i don't want those 5 or 6 tiny wires aswell as 3 large ones to deal with going from hull-to-motor. Benefits of sensored over sensorless, or are there any?
Just basic questions... but i want to make a good purchase, this will be my only motor purchase so it has to be good :)

BTW, i was looking at # 1406/1.5 at http://www.finedesignrc.com/motors.asp#AVEOX%20Brushless%20Motors
