New 6374 freerchobby motors are not battle hardened, but the look quite good and me metal retaining ring on top also looks solid
Seems like a good deal
Will update when my board is finished

Those freerchobby motors for me have all started slipping where the rotor meets the shaft. Did they redesign that part?

No idea, this is my first experience with them, but the grub screw is quite big, m4 it seems, and that’s good I hope, if you have a pic we could compare when I return home.

The fact that it’s a grub screw at all is most of the problem. Especially since it’s only one of them 
Really needs 4 bolts or better yet, a keyway and key.
Or maybe epoxy at manufacture time.
Literally anything but grub screws.

Cmon man dont kill my hope in them 
Its already a pain in the ass to battleharden them, I really don’t want to have to take the shaft out and epoxy it in or something haha

Thanks for this @Anubis, do you know if you’ll have the 6384s back in stock and can you confirm they are 140kv? I couldn’t find flipsky 140s on aliexpress. Also if you have any info on how they compare or if others know about their current capabilities compared to the 74s that’d be helpful

They’re about 15% more everything, and new stock arrived today
Oooohh that is fun, cheers. Any idea how long you expect stock to last? Trying not to bankrupt myself
a few months maybe
Does anyone know if the battle hardened Flipskys have any conformal coating or epoxy over the hall sensors or pcb?

Yes, the solder pads have epoxy over them. The entire PCB isn’t but i dont think thats nessesary. Its in the images at the top

Now that we’re a year later, any updated opinions on the two leading motor contenders?
Both battle-hardened, both decent performers, but Maytech consistently comes in at 30-50% higher price.
Flipsky’s latest in-house developed motors seem like a crowd pleaser, improving their bottom barrel reputation of old.
Maytech’s stellar rep seems to have taken a hit with over-heating issues.
Are Maytechs worth the extra $$?

Honestly the flipsky ones have worked so well for me I don’t know why I’d even consider the maytechs today

I have never had any problems with my Maytech 6355-6374, but theyre absolutely not worth the price premium over Flipsky’s battle-hardened lineup. I’d say Maytech’s are actually a downgrade at this point.

Will chime in and say Flipsky motors have been solid for me. Have not tried maytech motors but I dont think they are better in any way for the extra premium they charge.
Also shoutout to @Anubis for making a great review with plenty of pictures, need more detailed reviews like this
