A Banebots 390 has about the same rpm - but is lower torque...the 395 is a bit faster...still lower torque though. Both can be run from a Spike legally this year.
Were you running the am-0912 with a spike on your frisbee shooter? I just took a look at all the stall currents of the motors given, and it seems if stall current>30A, then it can't be run on a spike.
