I also noted this. I considered KO BMC / Tekin RS PRO / Novak Kinetic / LRP SXX and so on. They are all similarly priced (~$16xx). Of them, only Tekin RS (Pro or not Pro) support both brushless / brushed as well as REVERSE! This made it a really all-rounded ESC that make it usable in all RC from Touring to Rock Crawling.
So I think I will buy Tekin RS PRO for my next ESC. And ppl in US highly recommend it for stock class with its timing adjustment. Additionally, Tekin RS PRO support both sensored and sensorless BL motor!
In KWS, Tekin RS PRO is ~$16xx and non-Pro (same feature as PRO but with higher OnRes) is ~$12xx. Even if you're on budget, buy the non-PRO version will be more future-proof as you can use it in all types of RC with rev and drag brake. I just think it is a waste of $ seeing my old high-end ESC can only do FWD that I have to use cheap Tamiya ESC for my CR-01.... what a waste!
