Much worse. If they stalled at all you can just pitch it because it probably won't unstall, just lock up and burnout. They started making them differently, much better now, they're still known for breaking sometimes. It wasn't just the motor, it was the gearbox too, the gears inside would strip out and then jam if it stalled. These motors are from the kit that came in the Frc kit of parts ( correct me if I'm wrong, I wasn't on the team that year ) theyve since made them better.

We still have out Tetrix motors. We still have the whole kit actually. With the original motors
