Motors
I'm really new to the whole RC scene and I was wondering if one of you could explain what turn means with the motors e.g 19 turn 15 turn I keep hearing it but I have no idea what it means.
Thanks, Rob

RE: Motors
Lower turns should mean more speed, but sometimes it doesn't. Don't be fooled by the 15T Fireball or Havoc motors for around $20.00. A good 19T is faster. If you want your 15T (or whatever) to perform like a 15T, get a good one.

RE: Motors
Happywing is right, those cheapo motors DO NOT perform. I have personal experience with this. The B.S. 19T that came with my Losi RTR is just as fast as the 15T havoc in my buddy's truck. Don't waist your money, get a decent motor first...

Hi,
The Technigold is a 21 turn motor. You can find all the stats for it here. http://home19.inet.tele.dk/martinjor...ors/motors.htm

number of times the wire is wrapped around the armature in a motor... lower turn = more power higher turn = more efficient
