Default Alternative to Castle setups?

Hello all. I always opted for Castle Creations 1/18 scale brushless systems, but for some reason, I can't for the life of me find any 1/18 mamba micro pro combos on tower, eBay, amain, amazon, or any other major web store. If anyone could Explain to me why there is such Internet-wide low availability, that would be great.

But I digress: which 1/18 setup would be a good, reliable alternative to my usual castle setup? I'm not too familiar with the reputations of the other brands.

Thanks guys
EK

I have a Hobbywing 1/18th scale setup in my HPI recon that seems pretty good so far. Well was till I smashed my econ good, and been repairing it ever since [:@]

Other than that I own almost one of every ground based hobbywing ESC's made for most scales along with a pile of their motors, and can't really find any issues with them. (Well outside the 1/10th scale 2000kv BL motor those motors sucked ass)
