Converted a nearly 40 year old nitro Sig Kadet MKII with Skywalker 60 amp, 4s 4000MAH(Posted on April 22, 2019) Rebuilt my nearly 40 year old crashed Sig Kadet MKII and replaced my Enya 35 with the G32. Weighs in a 5.5 lbs ready to fly. Jumps off the runway, climbs nearly straight up, after 12 minute flying time still have about 40% battery left. Been flying it since Sept 2018 and over 100 flights with no problems. Getting ready to get one for my Mermaid Seaplane. Great buy and value. |

Awesome Motors --- VERY POOR ValueHobby CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!(Posted on September 13, 2018) I now own 5 of these motors and they are awesome! I purchased the first two of them in the winter months for two planes I was putting together. A 40 size Das Ugly Stick and a 40 size CAP 232, both extremely similar in weight. As the months went by and winter ended I mounted one in my stick and very early on the motor kept separating and coming apart, the inner shaft and housing would separate from the outer casing during flight. The 'C' clip would walk itself off during use. I called Value Hobby on this and they told me that since I purchased the motor a few months back they could not do anything, not even an even swap. I guess they don't support or stand behind Xmas shopping, or shopping early, or buying extra!!! I thought that was very poor service because I am a valued customer. As I mentioned I went on to purchase at least 5 of these G32 motors plus many others many including G46 and 4s and 6s batteries along with so many 80 Amp ESC's, REC, connectors, and many other RC supplies. And they couldn't bend on one $30 dollar motor! That's also why I shop at MotionRC as well because they displayed top notch are a no hassle SERVICE and PRICING. Value Hobby has great prices but this motor left me speechless. Anyhow, this motor, even though the first one was a dud, this motor is awesome! I run this motor with my stick 40 59" WS and my 40 size CAP 57" WS. I run the same setup in both. The G32 with a 14x7 prop, 80 AMP Hobbywing ESC and GForce 4s 30C 4000 battery. Both of these planes have plenty of power, unlimited vertical and they can take off inside 3 feet. Depending on throttle management I get between 6 and 8 minutes flying time. Both planes weigh about the same with these setups. The STICK weighs 4.3 lbs with only servos, and 5.8 lbs with this setup. The CAP 232 weighs 4.45 with only servos and about 5.9 with this setup. At roughly 700 WATTS for the G32 these models are averaging about 120 WATTS per POUND. Very economical and very powerful. I would recommend this motor for sure but I would give a warning about dealing with Value Hobbies customer service! |

Great but missing screws(Posted on May 14, 2018) Great for my sabre 47e kit that I built with a 4s 3300mah battery. It was missing 2 of the mounting screws for the radial mount behind motor but I'm going to get some more hopefully. Using sky walker 80a esc and dosnt even get warm. |

Are you kidding me? Best value motor I've found.(Posted on January 4, 2018) I build and fly a *lot*. I've been looking for alternatives to the more expensive options and this G32 is the ticket. 5s 11x7 prop yielded over 1000w @ 55a which is just north of the spec max. I have an 11x5.5 prop on order which should get the amperage below the rated max. I installed this motor on a 60" Tower Hobbies Sport and the plane flew awesome. I haven't beat on it yet because of my amp draw, but when the new prop comes, I'll put it through its paces. It made about 750w with 5s and a 10x6 prop at a very comfortable 38a. No fancy box, no fancy logs, just a simple working powerful .32 class brushless at an exceptional price. My only gripe is that it only comes with a bullet prop nut and not a standard prop nut to fit under a spinner, but that's no big deal. @ $30 I'll get over it. Thanks for making these available to us Value Hobby! John rcvideoreviews.com PS Watt meter results video available on my YT channel if you're interested. |

Great price for a top quality motor(Posted on October 14, 2017) I took a chance on this motor and I am happy and impressed. I am using it in a Great Planes Zero with a 4s battery and a 13x8 Master Airscrew prop and it has incredible power and I am getting around 7 minutes when I fly 3/4 to full throttle. The plane has an open cowl and the motor and ESC both run cool. I would definitely buy this brand again. |

Exceptional Value(Posted on April 27, 2017) I'm very happy with this motor. I put it on my Sabre 47 (which is also a great deal from Value Hobby) and it gives me unlimited vertical and plenty of power for whatever I throw at it. I kept putting off buying it because I was worried the price was just too good to be true. After reading a bunch of reviews over at Profile Brothers.com I went ahead with the purchase. Those guys over there are ruthlessly honest. I'm glad I listened. It's a great motor, period. |
