Something to consider is: What type of braking feature you would like? One is 'drag brake' and the other is your regular 'brake'. As I understand it, an example of 'drag brake' is when your truck is moving and you let your throttle go to neutral, brake is immediately applied (in the Castle esc the amount of drag brake is programmable). And if your truck is on a slope it would hold there provided that the esc is programmed accordingly.

I'd go with castle creations. The 1/18 sidewinder micro has soft start and braking features, and can do 3s lipo or NiMH and brushed or brushless. Size is nice at 0.95 x 1.72 x 0.4" for only 60 bucks.
