Re: Motor that can be dropped off a building.

have you actually tested the motors themselves in actual fights yet?

I think your problem may just be the gearbox being too weak. I'm not sure though.

You could always make your own gearbox .

EDIT: This whole concern is about your gearbox shaft getting damaged right? Have you considered using a racheting mechanism so that when it rapidly decelerates, it won't harm the gearbox shaft?
