electric motor question
 

i'm not exactly a beginner, but i thought this would be the best place to post this question. i'm sorry if there is already a thread with this subject. i couldn't find anything on it. i'm wondering if anyone can explain to me the what the number of turns on a motor means, and how it's affected by the different number of windings.

RE: electric motor question
 

Generally speaking, if two motors are the same size, more windings/turns means more rpms while lower windings/turns means more torque. In airplane terms, it's the difference between spinning a small prop faster or spinning a bigger prop. In car/truck terms, it is generally the difference between setting up for top speed or setting up for faster acceleration.

This is also true of brushless inrunner/outrunner motors where Kvm is compared instead of turns/windings
