I think the reason people are suggesting brushless is because he/she is asking for suggestions and ease of use seems to be a concern. We all know brushless is cleaner to maintain, easier to work on and flat out more reliable. Drivetrain suggestions are much different than saying "hmm, you want a monster truck to get over grass, this heli will get you over grass really well". Whys everybody so angry on these forum threads....ideas and suggestions are the name of the game I thought?

Anyways...the reality is your list is solid thru and thru. Buy any one of them and you'll find parts and be happy happy happy!

Good luck!
