|  Max amp draw for a lathe motor?
I'm thinking 45 turn, anybody measured amp draw with a watt meter? More interested in constant draw, not necessarily stall draw.

Buy it I'll buy a meter and we'll measure. I can get you a amp measurement for a 55t on 7.2.

I can test up to 10 amps with the cheesy harbor freight multi meter.  Well the 55t only drew .62 amps on 7.62 under no load full rpm with the pinion off. That was with the esc running as well as the servo. Servo burns .12 amps centering.8.50 amps on the wheely with a tow strap tires turning at full rpm on concrete. I think we'll be ok.

That looks good. Got a lipo picked out for the new project, needed to conclude the lowest amps I could go with.
