Why by an inferior motor, with inferior service, from an inferior company, when it will just die on you anyway and good luck getting warranty service. All to save a few bucks, kind of like the HW ESC's, I just don't get it when for just a little more you can have the best products on the market with the best support.
So true! I toasted my 5700kv motor in my MMP equiped Ofna JL10e, they fixed it without issue. Their customer service alone is worth the few extra $,and thats not even counting the quality!
I was tempted to try a 1/5 conversion using chinese a chinese motor and esc. After hearing about the new 12s car ESC that CC is working on, I have decided to wait :)
