Pretty much all brushless ESCs today are pretty good. They are pretty mature as far as designs go and I've never seen a Novak or Tekin one perform any different from a cheaper Chinese one.

Depends on what features you may want....but in general, I'd agree with Collector. I'm running a Brushless Hobbies brand ESC in my short course truck with a Novak motor, and my buddy is running a $40 HobbyKing 120A X-Car ESC with a Toro motor in his. They work great. And, those two even happen to be compatible with the HobbyWing programming card. I'm a big fan of so-called cheap Chinese junk.
