Default Brushless motor vs. other brushless motors

On some of the sites like UnitedHobbies they have motors for unreal prices. So if you see a motor say AXI from Hobby-Lobby. How would you find the same motor in performance from another maker? Would you look for motor windings, amps, RPMS per volt?? I'm kind of lost on this one

Default RE: Brushless motor vs. other brushless motors

Watts is probably the most important number. If they do not spec. the total watts, then take the amps and multiply by the voltage input the motor can handle to get watts.

So, watts, amps, kv/rpm's, and allowed voltage input are the big things to look at.
