Default New esc & motor for a Mini 8?

This is the 1st r/c anything Ive bought in years.

What are some good programmable brushless esc's and motors than are direct fit?

The Stock esc has plenty of power but no reverse or brake programming options... (I do not like %100 reverse)

Any help would be appreciated, I don't have much room under the body so if anyone knows what esc's and motor fit without having to mod please list them.

Sorry for no replies, idk the motor, i like the 4500 xcelorin that comes stock, no issues with stock. I bought a programmable turnigy 35a from hobbyking, it doesnt even get warm enough to even think about, and, adjustable brake, drag brake, reverse power, punch, lipo cut off, initial brake force etc. it was like $25, or under $30 anyway
mine mounts in front of the motor, but had to cut body for fan. But i believe you could remove the fan, as temps are very very low running this small amp load.
much smoother low throttle, you can smoothly putt putt around, and no cog whatsoever.
