Yeah, that's right.

The interest we showed was basically this: I told the Leopard owner to STOP COPYING our motor "look" and to stop implying that their brand was related to Castle.

They are a completely separate company. They are located in Shenzhen, Castle is in Zhongshan. (about 80 miles apart -- but both in PRD area of Guandong.)

Looks like they are trying again to imply there is a relationship between our companies, when there is no relationship.

I figured as much. Maybe it's time to give him a call again and tell him to stop dropping your name. Pretty low marketing tactic IMO.

I think the Leopard motors would be better off if they also used noodle wires.

Totally agree on that. I hate the coil wires. You are stuck with the length and if you damage them it's not a simple 2min soldering fix. Also if you strip the thread on the front end bell it is easy to fix with a Castle motor repair kit. Most of NEU business is from flying guys and I think they know that so their motors are more setup for air use.
