| Tekin standard OR "Pro" handwound crawler motors?
Title pretty much states my question. Does it make all that much difference? Is it worth the extra cash for the Pro models on a MOA set up?

There are much better handwould motors than the Tekin brand. Brood would be my first choice.

EDIT: Ok I said this wrong and it may have been confusing, I apologize. The PRO handwounds are still the same we've always offered. The machine wound motors are now discontinued and have been replaced with the new HD (Heavy Duty) motors that have an upgraded magnet over the previous version. Hope this clears it up!

So is the difference in performance worth the extra cash for the PRO models?

Yes, smoothness, added power, longer life.

Longer life depends on the driver and situation I would say. Most of my customers wear handwounds faster than machine wounds because of the extra power on tap. Lower phase resistance = higher amp draw if wanted.
