ESC looks to be ZTW to me. Plenty of brands are using them right now, so expect all boats to lift in the rising tide.

motor will no doubt be from one of the big three suppliers out there.

Back in 2007 when I was searching for companies to make my ESCs, SJ was one of them, but they didn't want to make it the way I wanted. The good old days of early sensored vehicle only (Aveox still rocks) ESCs lol.
