You are not the only one ;)

I run my HV7.5 with my MMM esc and it runs great on 4s and 5s for mid 30s to low 40s. I do admit that inconsistant startups can be a bit irritating. I've never had a sensorless combo that stands up to sensored in that respect. Even if sensorless starts up as well as sensored 90% of the time, the other 10% could still be 3-4 times during a run.

Like many would say, a neu motor is probably better many circumstances. Novak motors are a little too rpm based for my liking and are touchy on the gearing. But when power is not the demand there are certain features, such as its light weight, predictable power, solder tabs, and and size that may be better than neu in certain applications.
