For what it’s worth they’re great motors. Been running them for a while with no issues. They do run hot though I’ve been told they’re supposed to. $200 tho…
I say no issues cause I’m told the heat isn’t an issue… 90 degrees is the highest I’ve clocked them at, but I was told to set motor temp cutoffs start and stop at 140 and 160 respectively.
That’s hard to say to be honest. I don’t think they’re worth $200, but I realize their position because they’re not exactly making much selling it for $200 (I know their baseline cost).
I got them for free even though I wanted to pay for them. I’ve been running them for a few months and giving them feedback on how it runs and what settings I’m running them at
I know what those motors cost also, the actual retail is roughly $100 to $120 if you are only ordering small quantities, 50 to 100 motors. JJ seems like a great guy, I have had the pleasure of corresponding with him a few times but it is hard to overlook such a huge markup.
Ah that’s not the number they told me, but I may have been mistaken.
Yeah I love them on my board and I’ve tried a few motors, but I’m certainly no expert. I was thinking of getting some more for my upcoming builds actually but I gotta think about it some now…
I wish that were true but sadly it is not, maybe it is half true? I know of plenty of Chinese companies that supply motors to various military contractors.
@sofu If you really want skin in the game you should have sunray or brother make a short run of motors to your spec.
I don’t actually wanna sell anything selling stuff and delivering is tough and I’m way too lazy for that I helped get some Metasurf orders back to the US and even that was not my cup of tea… I’d much rather be a consumer like with the recurve I’m waiting on
