They are worth a punt at £3.80 each. It says they can be run up to 18 volts, but on 12 volts run at 12000 revs.

99.9% positive feedback and nearly a quid less than the same thing with an MFA label on it? Yeah - have a go, but be aware that the postage adds nearly three quid to the price. If you need other stuff e.g. batteries, charger, cable etc then you'd probably be better off overall buying the lot from a mail order retailer like Component Shop or CMB.

If you mean brushed 385's you can find them for 3 squids post free.
Or are we talking brushless.
DM mentioned MFA so I presume brushed.

They are not brushless, but plain, ordinary brushed, but the illustration shows a torque sleeve fitted.
