Yeah. Except those fake Fnaf minifigs with parts that vary in how well they connect to other parts. (Besides BonBon, if the connection is weak, then F. Freddy can throw BonBon, like in Sister Location, resulting in a problem becoming a play feature.)
These motors actually pretty good, just don't buy fake servos.Chinese buggy motors also nice for that price, but you need to remove their strange thermal protection first.
I have one of those Chinesse buggy motors like mould king is the brand I will tell you mine does not use the thermal protection I can leave it running for 2 straight minutes and can make it burn the plastic through friction and it will not stop until I stop it
Time will tell how well they are. They are definitely much cheaper. It is a pity that their characteristics do not match the original ones and because of this they cannot be used together in complex models.
Yes, the fake motors are faster, but here's the catch: They will spin faster than LEGO motors, but have less torque (meaning they won't have as much power to move things). *I will delete this comment if it gets more hate*
@@funbrick I'm not drawing my own conclusions. It's really just common sense. You can't have a super high-speed motor with a lot of torque, nor a super high-torque motor with high-speed. It's one or the other.
@@milespeterson5049 Perhaps in the first motor, LEGO had torque, but only a little. Otherwise, to me, it looked like the same torque but with higher speed.

@milespeterson5049 Ish, if we are talking power budget, you have to reduce torque at higher rpm, but at the same rpm, they could have the same torque. If I'd guess the fake ones have about the same torque but are allowed to rev out more, as i think lego is limiting the rpm so that the motors appear more powerful
The Chinese "fake" motors are definitely faster and also seem to be a bit more powerful. I would be very interested in this for my Lego Technic car. It's a shame that there is no manufacturer name or source.

Thank you for your big comment with a long text. ;-) The video does not draw conclusions, but only shows a comparison! No statements. And for whom it is worse or better, let everyone decide for himself... Good luck! :-)
@@funbrick this is just one of many videos (and my own aforementioned experience) that all have the same result though: the knockoffs are better than the originals, and my theory without checking is that the knockoffs dont have the protective thermistor inside them and thus work better under load. you didnt draw conclusions but youre still a data point :)
Of the original LEGO motors I have, identical models still have slightly different characteristics (rotation speed). Which is surprising, since a more expensive product could at least have stable characteristics. Because of this, it is not always possible to realize what is planned, or it takes a long time to sort through all the available ones in order to select an equivalent pair, and when even more of them are needed for a model, the task of selecting equivalent ones becomes even more difficult.
I believe the reason that the off brand ones are more powerful is because it doesnt have a voltage limiter, which protects the motor and makes it last longer. The lego motor *will* outlast the cheap chinese rip off
It would have been interesting to see if they could lift more weight! In the tests with the vehicles, the only thing that matters is whether they can apply the force to the ground. Attaching the weights would also be desirable.
After a while, a new video will be released on the FunBrick channel with a comparison of 5 motors and there will be a pressure test on the scales - this will be more accurate than lifting weights.
Saw on Ali another pf L motor, "overspeed" as says in description - 1400rpm... Interesting thing, but it costs twise than regular and red, and how long it will work...

I have a if you want a reasonable price and an actually super fast and high torque motor and I bought a gearbox to slow it down cause it was too fast for climbing rocks just buy a mould king one super reliable even the battery boxes are great kept charge for like 3 months
If make a copy, it would be better if it completely coincided in characteristics so that it could be used in conjunction with the original. And if you do it better, then maybe you should use a different size and format of the cases so that they differ?
These sets are now on eBay for about £15 / $20 and are actually a good source of parts. I just bought two for exactly that reason. Not interested in the app or anything else - just want the parts, some of which are not easy to get elsewhere.
Please note that one battery pack is specifically used for both subjects!!! So that the quality of the batteries does not affect the results in any way! Take a closer look at the video.
@@RemoteTroll Yes, the motors were purposely connected in parallel to the same battery pack to eliminate the effects of possible different supply voltages of different batteries. About conventional and lithium batteries: what would be the fundamental difference if lithium batteries were used?
Wires was really a pity. :'-( But otherwise the comparison would be dubious and would cause a lot of controversy if different battery packs were used (after all, their different charge would probably greatly influence the result). Therefore, different motors were deliberately connected in parallel to one battery pack. It would be possible to stretch ropes shorter than the wires, and then all the load would fall on the ropes, and not on the wires. But then it would look less beautiful on camera. ;-)
The engines that took part in the tests were almost never used before. There are several other LEGO motors that have gotten worse over time, but they did not participate in the filming.
They are both fake. On the sidenof the real one it is supposed to say "LEGO" in the little box on the side. None of them say "LEGO" on the side, Therefore they are both fake.

It makes sense that the after market are stronger and faster, they are made with newer motors.

@@funbrick Purhaps its ment to micmic the buggy motor at a smaller scale, with a more expensive and faster motor. Maybe also use it for your lego rc cars to make them go fast enough to shake themselfs to bits lol.
The fake prioritizes agility, while the actual LEGO motor focuses on torque.
I had a fake steering motor and within a few days, the steering motor would turn left yet could never turn right.
A fake does not guarantee durability, it depends on luck. I'm sorry you were unlucky with your exemplar.
