The reventon Pro has great feel...the newer Hobbywing stuff feels broken to me...Tekin has terrible feel but it is fast...Older Orca software feels like a light switch to me, not sure about the newer stuff.

I would say either the new Reventon v1.1 or the Flow are probably the best two modern ESCs. Maybe the Orca VXX can be a good choice too just not sure about that platform yet.

What is funny to me is that ESCs with very smooth bottom end torque tend to provide faster more consistent lap times than those that dump all of the power in a very short amount of time. Too many speed control software designers think you need 100% of the power (in Blinky) as soon as you can and that is simply a mistake. A linear feeling power delivery can transform a driver's ability to go fast consistently.

This is just my opinion the best thing to do is to test these yourself and formulate your own opinion.
