Any feed back on this or any others would be appreciated.

Rhys, spending $250 AUD seems like overkill to me, for an ESC and motor. A little more information would be helpful.

Are you planning on using the stock transmission? ESC's aren't too expensive. I replaced the stock motor in my KH with a 65T ($10). The higher the number of turns the more torque is produced. The catch is as torque increases, speed decreases. It sounds like you are looking for torque. In addition to a higher torque motor, you could install a gear reducer, that can double the torque, but also lowers the speed.
