Price for one - $16.49 Shipping for 1 - $13.55
Price for ten - $16.49 each Shipping for 10 - $45.03

PROS-
Relatively quiet
High torque
Designed for continuous use
Electrical connection is relatively easy to get to. Will accept push-on crimp connectors.
This motor had enough torque to spin the 8oz test weight at high rpm without strain.

CONS -
Shipping for a single unit is relatively expensive.

Modifications -
The output shaft has a splined tapered shaft and comes with a mounting nut. It was easy to drill a hole in the crank arm that was slightly undersized and use the nut to draw the arm onto the shaft. The connection was easy and secure.

Comments - This motor has plenty of torque for most props.   You'll need a PWM controller or need to run the motor at a lower voltage to keep the speed of motion down.  The motor buzzes when used with an inexpensive PWM controller.  For many applications this motor should be the go-to choice.  It is relatively inexpensive, is easy to mount, and adaptable.  

Unverified rumor has it that for larger orders you can contact them directly and they will work with you on the price and shipping cost.

RECOMMENDED with comments.
