    Used two of these on a new featherweight robot, and they’re easy to install and use. Ran on 3S and surprised how well they ran and how robust they are. Had a few heavy landings and the motors are unbothered. It’s nice to get all the correct reverse thread screws as well. I would definitely recommend these to someone looking for a simple yet robust drive motor.
