I used this ESC with 4 cells powering the Aerodrive 5045 motor, also for sale.  You can download the setup instructions from the link above.

Price: £25.00

I have cut and pasted the description below from HobbyKing's website:

The Aerostar range of brushless speed controllers is designed for fixed-wing aircraft. They feature super smooth start-up, linear throttle response, and multiple protection features, all at a fantastic price.

Although primarily designed for fixed-wing aircraft, they also include a soft start and heli mode, making them a good low-cost alternative ESC for your next helicopter project.

Installation is very straightforward as these speed controllers come "plug & play", with no soldering required, they are pre-fitted with an XT60 connector and 3 x 3.5mm gold connectors.

Programming can be done either using the transmitter and listening to the tones or you can use the dedicated programming card (see "Related Items").
