Why Micro Brushless Motor Wires Break + New Strain Relief PCB | Holmes Hobbies Revolver 030 & 050

Holmes Hobbies Revolver 030 and 050 micro brushless motor update for SCX24, FCX24 and SCX30 crawlers: why the lead wires break, a new strain relief PCB with swappable solder-on wires, and kV vs torque. 030 micro brushless motor: https://holmeshobbies.com/products/motors/brushless-motors/revolver-series/revolver-030 050 micro brushless motor: https://holmeshobbies.com/products/motors/brushless-motors/revolver-series/revolver-050 Some of you have had the tiny lead wires on our first batch of micro motors break. Here's why, and what I'm changing: - Why they break: bending the wires cracks the epoxy that holds them - The fix: a small side PCB that comes off sideways, about +1 mm on the 030 - Real solder points, so you can swap your own wires - Run the wires out either direction - Should not change how the motor mounts - Having problems with a first-batch motor? We'll swap it out I also want your feedback on kV: - Both motors come in 2200kv and 3500kv today. Some of you asked for 5000 kV. Tell me if that's you - Would you give up a little torque for a higher kV on the 050?
