I started with motors from Bambu, It initially would not spin but I reprinted the connector for the use bevil gear at 105% to get it to not be loose, and then i used silicone spray and then It worked, but just barely. Then i got in some motors from Aliexpress and now it runs great. Way more torque, even though specs are the same. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256809023602443.html And it has a much longer cord also.
