We make all of our escs here in California---no Chinese mfg is licensed to re-produce our products regardless of what you say. We do not purchase either Brushless motors or any of our controllers from Chinese manufacturers.

To be fair to Novak, my first brushless combo was a GTB and Velocity 5.5 took it out first run the sensor wire broke at the plug (before the sensor wires were separate units) I recall the store owner having to fight tooth and nail with the distributor (or at least thats what they told me) in Australia to get it warrantied, it took 3 weeks for them to begrudgingly give me one by which time I'd gone back to a brushed set up. That was 4 or 5 years ago and since that experience I have not bought a Novak item since.
