ORIGINAL: aeajr ... the fact that I can buy a motor from one source for $30 and a comparable motor from another source is $60 is easy to measure. But if I have had problems with the quality control from the first source and consistent results from the second speaks to value, not price

Ed, it is not my intention in any way to support or promote companies like HiModel or HK -after all, they do not need any help at all ....
-But with respect, Ed -you are talking about a 2-fold price difference, $30 to $60 -that would not be so bad. After all, you can sometimes see household goods in the local corner shop that are twice the price of the supermarket.
BUT: The REAL situation that we have here, is a<span style="font-size: small"> 4-FOLD PRICE DIFFERENCE </span>for what is the exact same identical brushless motor. There is little to be gained by playing this down, Ed. It is simply a <span style="font-size: small">MASSIVE AND ENORMOUS PRICE DIFFERENCE </span>-for exactly the same identical motor. And I am sure that everyone will agree that this is the case.
-It is actually quite shocking, and is also to some extent quite cynical ...
