If you never plan on using more cells, then the Rooster Crawler is good for the price. Then a step up from that would be the Tekin FXR.

Castle Sidewinder all the way. Well designed and thought out, very versatile and easy to program.

I looked at Castle site and it never said anything about having drag brake.

With your plans I would look into the B1-R from Tekin or the FX-R, both work amazing!

Tekin B1-r, FXr, Sidewinder, Mamba max, they all have drag brake.

FXR and B1R is the smallest in the bunch.

I would say Sidewinder or Mamba max. You can run Drag brakes, lipo, Brushed ,Brushless if the urge strikes Plus the best tech support ive ever used. One year free replacement no questions asked.

Just a quick Question about the Sidewinder... is there a delay between forward and reverse?

It's programmable, so if you want a delay, you can have it. If not, then just don't program it that way.
