Castle Garage Sale

[Knez]

"The motors are sold as is. That means no warranty, no Replacement Parts...

This leads me to believe, these motors are being discontinued...

Can someone from Castle, please confirm or deny this?"


U think Castle would try to gangbang us????

[ANGRY-ALIEN]

Why would you think that?

Seems obvious to me from his post that these are motors that did not make it into full production for one reason or another, and seem to have no future with CC. Hence no warrenty. CC obviously learned how to make them better and moved on with the motors currently in regular stock.

Kind of like buying a Delorian. No warrenty and no replacement parts, which means if you bought one you are stuck with it no matter what happens to it. Once it breaks it becomes a paperweight. For the price what can anyone expect? At those prices it is a throw away. Put it in, use it, and once it fries you toss it in the trash. Sounds simple to me.

Some of them are discontinued. The 15xx motors are just WAY overstocked...

good to know. I hope a 1520 is still available when I get my government cheese at the first of the month. (thanks taxpayers)

"The motors are sold as is. That means no warranty. Not because we don't trust them, but because they came from limited runs and we simply don't have replacements here to offer for returned products."

This leads me to believe, these motors are being discontinued, at least for now. Perhaps every motor model in the sale, or perhaps only some. I don't know.

All of these motors are currently for sale through distributers "with a warranty". I dont see Castle trying to get over on any of us.Maybe they stated that to thin the herd of newbs lookin for somthin for nothin, and f*****g it up.I bought a friggin 1717,1580kv about a month ago and now i'm kikkin myself in the azz.I have no concerns at all with this.BTW PM me if you still got trx conns.
MY UPDATED ORDER
1-1512
2-1518
2-1520
And Another 1717

Can anyone advise if the 1512 (1800kv) would be suitable for a Slash 4x4 running 3s lipos

Cheers

Perfect motor on 3s, just gear it accordingly.

Bondonutz runs a 1800kv 1509 motor in his slash on 3s and he says it runs cool all the time with good power.
