I had the opportunity to try one at the Area 51 Enduro practice session. I put installed it in a car that had a Scaleauto 20k ball bearing motor in (keep in mind these motors are over $20!!). On the track, the car was very quiet, and within a couple laps, I was running just as quick with the Piranha motor as I was with the Scaleauto. Everyone standing around was amazed how quiet the car was running. I was impressed by the smooth powerband. As Harry says, it much smoother than the Slot.It motor.
As they say... Try it, you'll like it!! Mikey did!! :auto-driving:

I also have had the opportunity to test this motor. First thing I noticed is how smooth the motor is and as Dickie mentioned, how smooth the power band is. I tried the car in a Racer DP and the times are just as quick as others. What's important to note is on some of the other 21.5K motors I have to take the end bell out and glue in the bushing because there is too much play. This motor is just drop in and go. At this price, you can't go wrong.
