Problem is there isn't a hell of a lot of combat ready brushless motors out there. You either have industrial stuff that is massively heavy with conservative power ratings or model hobby stuff with lightweight with overrated power ratings.

When you start talking custom brushless there is much to debate about figures and ratings too
There are a few. Remember that brushless Etek? Team Nightmare has those.
