When it comes to a RS385, ....I don’t think there’s a higher quality version....they’re all poo....bottom feeders....ain’t worth the crappy can they’re pressed into......

I would agree when it comes to Mabuchi.

However, I did not say RS385, I said RS385 size.....

Here are the dimensions for the RS385: Motor Dimension: 1.14 '' dia. x 1.7'' length (28.9 mm dia. x 43.2 mm length)

so if you go here

https://www.haydonkerkpittman....hed-dc-motors/dc030b

you will find DC30B Brushed Motor

Which is approximately the size of a RS385 from Mabuchi, but would be of higher quality. So it is possible to have a RS385 sized motor that is higher quality. But such a motor is not from Mabuchi. The RS designation is just a Mabuchi thing.
