Default atomic bb motor review

I got it today and installed it right away. Install is easy, it woulda been easier if the freakin screws were lil bit biger. Anyways, my impression is WOW. What a difference. It well worth the money. U really feel the difference. So whoever thinking to buy it dont think further this motor is great but make sure get a set of spare tires. They wear out faaast.

I would love to but i broke my rear hub and i dont even play with it outside. Jumps got crazier with this motor. I hit to the tv stand side ways and boom, broken rear hub. 160 mah on the way so it will be lil more faster, i think well enough for indoor.

I dont know exactly what does ball bearing in a motor do but for $14 u cant beat this motor. It is really fast. Since i only use it indoors it is more than enough.

Ball bearings in a motor make it have less resistance when spinning prolonging the life and also effecting the speed and effeciency. They usually use bushings, Same basic thing as your wheel hubs having bushings vs. ball bearings.
