Brushless motor must have a brushless esc, can come as a combo and is almost fit & forget (and no more expensive than brushed combo, cheaper in the long run). I don't know what the slowest brushless is, with a half good transmitter you should be able to turn down the end point to limit speed.
Ah brilliant, think I'll look into lipo/brushless for mine then, and normal brushed motor the other comes with and lipo.

This forum is awesome, learnt more in the last few hours than I have in the last 4 evenings surfing (in fact ended up more confused than when I started).

Thanks alot for the help everyone, and sorry for what are likely to be pretty silly questions
