This is a great little brushless motor. It comes with its own motor controller buried at the bottom of the case and has a nice small connector for the cables. It accepts raw power, PWM (enable) input and CW/CCW rotation selection input. It outputs a pulse train from its internal hall sensor as an indicator of RPM. Rated for 12V, it works down to 7V, apparently with no reduction in torque. I could not measure the developed torque, but it is difficult to stop the shaft with fingers. Quite powerful. The start and stop, and rotation changes are instantaneous, due to its impressive torque.
It would be great for a balancing robot or similar because it has internal regulation and speed output signal. It is also really, really quiet (so much that you need to really listen to realize that it is turning).
Dead simple to control from an Arduino or similar, and from simple battery powered devices too.
Overall: Highly recommended.
