Which of those two
velocity konstant Kv values? (in rpm/volt, Kv is a physical property, not a unit of measurement). Or is it just a typo?
Those two values would give two extremely different motors. Because both current and power
drawn are
proportional to Kv cubed. A factor of (2860/1850)³=3.6, i.e. 260% more current and power
drawn.
Note that
Kv says nothing about max.power and max.current capability. Like e.g. mass, Kv is not a rating, not a figure of merit.
Gelukkig Nieuw Jaar
