Sources for RS-775 18v motors

[wilsonmw04]

Greetings,

Can anyone recommend a supplier for RS 775 18V motors? Banebots had not returned a phone call or email in over 2 weeks. I have found a supply in China, but they won't get here until after the build season is over. Thanks in advance for your help.

Matt,
Will 550's work? We have been working through a big batch we bought a couple years ago. I could check tonight to see how many we have left. How many do you need?

2 would get the practice bot working. 550's are a good idea. Thanks Todd! Let me see what we have at the shop tonight and we'll get back with you all soon.

I just placed an order on Saturday and received it yesterday. No issues and sent right away. Placed the order through their website.

I called them last week and someone answered.
So far, we placed 2 orders this month and got them pretty fast considering where we're located.

Good luck in getting them nonetheless.

Are the ones from China exactly identical, from the same OEM? (If not, contact frcparts@usfirst.org to figure out if they're acceptable and let us know the resolution.)
