Normally get a reasonable price for 20 or more. Shipping is a killer at the moment (more so than normal) and import taxes difficult to overcome too.

From $300 for 20 motors I would have thought.

There is a British shop that seems to be making their own motors

Maybe someone can contact them and if we put the right number of orders in, we might be able to get them to change KV/motor shafts etc ec
This is the biggest I see. Seems to be 6364

Looking at these screws makes me not trust anything else they have to say.
Unless it’s just a stock image, and the actual bolts are, umm, good.

There is a couple of builds on the sunken raptor forum with those. I had a read but no definite conclusion.

The screws seem to be that shape to factor in the counter sunk mounting plate so not necessarily bad. Lets see what @Halbj613 comes back with. If they are willing to deal with him, we can be rest assured they have a calm temperament.
