| Motor Turns
I need a new motor :-(, my 65T has lots of torque, but even with an 18t pinion, my axial is still slow. I'm looking at going to a 35 or 45 turn motor (no, not ready to go brushless yet and my rooster crawler would likely fry under a 11.1v lipo, only rated to 8.4v) and I was wondering what the RPM difference is between the different motors. For instance, at 5vdc, what the motor RPM would be for a 65T, 55T, 45T, and 35T?

Directly from Holmes' website: Motor speeds (taken from random and averaged sample @ zero timing & 3100rpm): 10t = 6526 rpm/volt 15t = 4317 rpm/volt 17t = 3753 rpm/volt 20t = 3216 rpm/volt 21t = 3082 rpm/volt 23t = 2790 rpm/volt 25t = 2588 rpm/volt 35t = 1565 rpm/volt 45t = 1210 rpm/volt 55t = 987 rpm/volt 65t = 837 rpm/volt |
