WOW, not bad given the weight carried, how long are your motors lasting, are you doing anything special in the way of motor maintence

Mike A I did remove the plastic cover around the motor. Figured it was for looks and not much else and also would allow more air around the motors. Then I cut up a soda can and stuck pieces under the plastic that goes around the motor. This put it against the motor to act as a heat sink. The can pieces stuck out a bit to take the heat away from the motor. Later I found out that removing the plastic cover made the motor mount weaker to side impact and it broke the connection. I purchased new ones and plan on cutting some of it off to allow air to get to the motors, but still act as support for side impact. This was more made as a toy and I did not expect it to be able to take a whole lot. I have no idea how long the motors lasted in hours, but after about a month of playing with it, it started acting up. 1 or more of the motors started failing. Right now I have 4 new ones to install sometime.
