Default Old gear... what to do with them?

Afternoon everyone.

I have some older brushless motors from Trinity (Monster and 24k).

What does everyone do with older motors that can no longer be used for competition?

I do not have a basher otherwise I would stick them in there. Do we just toss them for recycling?

There's old and then there's OLD. Slightly-moderate used stuff can be sold if its in decent enough shape and someone is willing to buy it. Otherwise an e-waste drop off location would probably be the best

You put them in a box and look at them once in a while.
