thank for an informative post...I once had a go tech 5 port I think like a gen 2 it was hell to break in but super fast i got 2 gallons on it before my rear bearing seized(but i didn't take care of the motor as I should've)...I was a little more noob then...I will be trying one as soon as I can afford it but for now my caster will be powered by a PTM VSpec/Jp-3 combo
