Andy C Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 Thanks for the reply guys. Before I consider Stevan's offer, I wonder if there is any benefit in buying alternative brands. I tend to buy hobbyking to gain a price benefit, but are 4Max setups worth extra money? Better efficiency perhaps or just longevity?

Piers Bowlan Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I suppose at least with 4-max you can send the motor back and get a replacement if a magnet 'lets go'. Also Hobbyking don't seem to stock the vast range of motors they used to, or as cheap for that matter. Even so the cost of the original motor is not vast compared with the overall investment you have made in the model and radio. No doubt 4-Max can suggest a motor which will fit the model while giving you a performance boost to boot, compared with the stock motor. ?
