The 1st 3 questions are:

What rig will this go into?
Which kit are you looking at?
Do you comp or run for fun?

Hobby Wing makes good stuff. I've used it before and I wouldn't hesitate to use it again.

Brushless tends to suck for crawling. If you don't plan on going super slow, you'll be fine. The low first gear in the Summit trans helps with the cogging you get with brushless motors, just keep your pinion size conservative, I think I ran a 12t in mine. Second gear will more than make up for the slow First gear.
