I was in a LHS recently looking for low turn brushed motor. Found a few but none have wirings, I asked the owner if any with wirings soldered on available, (hint hint). In one thoughtless answer he suggest I just "tape" or "glue" the wires onto the motor terminals. If the reply was from his young & inexperience hire hand, I can accept, but from the owner who builds detailed RC model battleships from 1/350 to 1/200 scale, I cannot accept. I just thank him for his suggestion and walked out.

I guess he just want to rid his brushed motor and the dollar involved was not great. Real business person will offer the soldering service and the wirings all for a fee. I guess he rather go back reading his newspaper. Now we can see why some businesses are more successful than other or why some just can't make it at all.

Yeah, I recalled he was reaching behind for something while telling me to tape or glue it together.... I guess his butt cheeks got soldered together and couldn't pull it out and show it to me, else I would've have bought it right there and than. my apologies to this monkey :lol:
