It lacks the grooves to actually hold the motor in place. Without them any force displace into the shaft or along the face of the motor will push it through the housing.

You can see the grooves here:

Yes, they do lack the grooves however you just heat the parts and slightly form the plastic around the motors sorted, using them on my ant atm, work wonders and costs 20p as opposed to 4pound

Also means I'm not copying design but using initiative and properties of the materials.
If there are issues I can modify design
