The cheap lipo batteries from Hong Kong will do you fine(gens ace, turnigy, kypom, zippy, etc.)No need for "the best". Any new battery will perform pretty well.

The majority of us on this forum are racers, so we pretty much all use sensored systems. If you aren't racing, you can get away with sensorless, which is usually a bit cheaper, but I can't really recommend any sensorless systems, because I don't use them. The only ESCs I would personally recommend for use with a low turn mod motor, would be ORCA vx, Orion R10 pro or Hobbywing v3.1
