Default Cheap motor any good?

I was looking at this motor when I was looking for an up grade for my stryker. It looks good according to the specifications, but I just want a second opinion on the quality of this motor. For $30 it may be worth a try.

LT 3900 kv is a bit high for a direct drive inrunner for the stryker. You would have to swing a very small prop to keep the amps down. Typically a good KV for the stryker is between 1800- 3000.
Not saying it wouldn't work, just the cost of the high amps is too much.
