It just means that the esc knows what position the rotor is in so when you wind on the throttle it can tell how much power to apply & at what point in the motor revolution to do it. An unsensored motor just is straight control and when accelerating the motor can 'cog' because the power can be delivered at the wrong point in the cycle. With the sensored set up its a closed loop control system so its always waiting for motor feedback this makes for a slightly slower but smoother operation compared to the sensorless which is slightly quicker but jerkier (is that a word?) In operation
