Default Sensored - Sensorless

Simply put, Sensored is better than Sensorless.

Sensored - the speed controller knows exactly where the rotor is while it is rotating via the sensor lead so starts and slow speed control of the motor is smoother - no 'cogging' or stuttering

Sensorless - the speed controller does not know where the rotor in the motor is so slower control of the motor sometimes means 'cogging' or stuttering starts but once the rotor picks up a bit of speed generally everything is ok.
