Question Novak GTB or LRP sphere competition?

High im going to buy a brushless motor. As of now im going for the Orion Vortex brushless 5.5 or a 6.5, but im waiting untill people try it and there's some reviews of it.

My question is what ESC do you guys suggest since Orion doesn't make one. Right now im leaning towards LRP but i would love to have some other opinions.

Also any opinions on if i should get a different motor then the Orion Vortex and why is welcomed. I havnt owned a brushless motor so any input or advice would be appreciated. (if it helps im running a xx4 atm but im going ot upgrade into a x-5 in the possibly near future)
(i think i should have posted this in electronics. sry don't have many post on oople so far)

Go for either the LRP or Nosram. They are smaller than the competition ones so will fit easier and there are plenty of people running them to get set ups from.

nosram and lrp are the same company right?
im in the U.S. so i would buy from lrp correct?
i know that the novak one is large and im looking forward to getting an x-5 and i know that there isnt a whole lot of room so im leaning towards the sphere comp.

im looking forwards to the orion brushless system any one hear any good or bad news about it?
