Brushless motors are more expensive, and their corresponding controllers are way more expensive than brushed motors. Yes, you will get better speed, control, and space management, but it all comes at a price. The problem with the motors that you posted is that they are designed for RC airplanes, and NOT for ground vehicles. They are intended to spin in only one direction, at very high speed spinning a propeller. You could have a higher possibility of them burning out when you put them into a sudden reverse polarity. These ones probably wont have the TORQ needed as the windings are designed to have a higher amount of airflow over them in an aircraft to keep them cool. My words is DO NOT use motors that are designed for the model aircraft industry. (I have been flying RC aircraft for over 30 years, and I have seen the bad of them running without good airflow.)
