12, 13 or 15 Double turn motors?
Is there a difference in run time and power from a 12, 13, or a 15 double turn motor? For a Villian Ex.

I believe the lower the number the faster it is. But you may need a ESC that can handle the load and the turn. Example. 6 cell battery pack 7.2 and a 8t motor may burn out a 13t ESC. hope that help's

Run time is determined by the amount of current drawn by the motor(s), and the capacity of the battery(s). The lower the turns count, the higher the current draw, and the shorter the run time. The number of turns in a motor tells you next to nothing, you have to know the current draw.
