If you want to go inexpensive, just get an appropriate Feigao motor. The Nue is arguably the best motor out right now, from what I've read. I'm still running Feigaos. They are so cheap that I can lay off of them.
This comes up now and again. The basic conclusion is that its just a rebadged Feigao/Wanderer. I would bet a 7XL or so (make it run as powerful as possible and screw the customer if it thermals.) There was an article on his LST (or MGT?) conversion on 4S. Basically the nitro guys who wrote it were "holy @#$%#$% its fast, we had to let the motor cool after 5min b/c of temps, but it is fassssstttttt!!!!!" (and this was just driving around a parking lot...)

But who knows as he won't reveal the Kv rating. That's just gay. That's why RCM>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>FD

FYI, 1HP~750W, so that's a 1500W motor. Pretty much all the XLs are ~1500W capable. Don't get the motor (or anything) from him.
