Cheers - now sorted.

What's a 'turner' anyway?

I take it you mean 'turn' - turner doesn't make sense

See below(brushed motors):

Windings: Each pole of the armature was wire wound around it. This lacquer coated (for insulation) wire is what the battery current passes though and creates a magnetic field so the motor will run. Stock motors have 27 wraps (or turns) of 22 gage wire. You may hear some RCers refer to this as "winds or turns". Less winds generally means a faster motor and the smaller number of the gage means bigger diameter wire. You will see motors with as few as 8 "winds or turns" and as many as 35 or more.
