I definayely don't have any problem buying used, I've actually had really great experiences on the net trading and buying used and the savings can be significant and worthwhile. I'd be a happy guy if I could find an esc and motor for $100 each. Lutach's motor is 825kv so I really need something with a higher voltage rating than a cc xl2 all though I'm sure 8s would work ok, it would only produce approx 24k rpm's.
If I could find a 1200kv version 8s would work great but the more reading I do the more I like the idea a high voltage setup

IMHO though I would say your best bet would be to purchase a used 1527 from a known member with a good reputation (Lutach) and then find yourself a brand new ESC and at least have some level of warranty (CC XL2). Plus you can get one that has everything that is requred for handling your setup.
