Well ive been looking for a good brushless motor for a scale scx10. I understand the turns rate for motor speed(21.5 turns), but when i see stuff like 5700kv or 7600kv Motor, I dont know what this = in turns. can some one help me? |

Well, most sensored systems are rated in turns, and most sensorless systems are rated in KV. It's actually pretty difficult to find out the KV of a sensored motor- I had to call Tekin to get that info. The sensored systems are going to be smoother on the low end. I'd suggest you put a Tekin 21.5 or 17.5 system in your SCX10, or perhaps a Novak Goat 3S in the 21.5 or 18.5. Depending on your battery, you'll have TONS of wheelspeed and oodles of torque... Hope that helps! Ryan |

In kv's it would be anywhere between 1300kv to 1700kv. 7600kv is close to 5.5 turn motor. 1300kv would be 21.5turn and 1700kv would 18.5turn
