For one reason or another, the Novak Kv values don't line up with the rest of the world. I wouldn't say the Novak has a bad rap. it simply isn't as powerful as other systems. It is a nice upgrade to the stock system, and is a smooth operator, but it just won't put out as much power as some other systems. Sensorless systems are a little more efficient and capable of slightly more power/rpm (generally speaking). for low speed stuff, sensored is the way to go.
