Sensor vs non-sensored BL motors

[jokerjustin]

The search button is your friend..........sensored motors have sensors which tell the esc what position the rotor is in.this helps with smoother starts and most of the time it gives you the ability to move at a crawling speed with no cogging...
i personally like non sensored, with a good esc a non sensored motor will performe similar to a sensored

Ok, understood now what is cogging and how do you prevent this or minimize this?

There aren't any really good (REALLY good) brushless motors out there that are sensored, all the good ones (and high powered) are sensorless.
