I've only tried a few of the hobbycity motors, but just didn't seem to be good quality. Of course for the price I guess you really can't complain. The 9xl runs hot, noticeably hotter than the nemesis, or bidproduct motor. I was super impressed with the L can 380 I got from them, but a sloppy bearing housing making it short out after about 10 packs or so was kind of discouraging. The bidproduct motors I have are

I have been impressed with both, I feel they run like they should, only downfall is plan on about 3 weeks to get and the shipping is very pricey. I think they are worth twice the price over the hobbycity ones. Just my opinion. I ordered a couple more gears to play with, I want to keep it on 3s just because the packs I have drop right in. I think I may try one of the new bidproduct motors, 9L with the fins. I havn't heard anything at all about them. Guess I can be the ginuea pig.
