Nah, I have a few FAQs and Tutorials in my sig that explain the different types of escs and BL motors, plus the different types of lithium batteries in great detail, but with plain English language and explanations.
There are also a multitude of other FAQs that are stickied in the General and Brushless sections, with even more info and explanations.
As for whats best, it depends much on your personal needs/desires, and budget; looking at similar builds to your own will yield usual info too.
The thread below lists peoples personal setups with various vehicles, with info on gearing and such to make life easier:

Given the vast number of options out there, its a bit unrealistic to compile a list of escs, lipos, motors etc etc, but if you look at BrianG's calculator, it lists most of the popular motors that we tend to use.
On the esc front, 99% of whats easily available is 4-6s lipo at most, with only the $$$$ Schulzes and MGMs going higher in voltage; exception is Lutach's LT-10s esc. A 9lb vehicle should do fine on 6s lipo though, even if it is a stretched maxx. |
Hey thank u suicid
I'll look at the FAQ stickies
