newbie question about motors

[wolf]

whats the diffence between
For example
15t single and a 15t x2 or double ?

[GhostlyRock]

15t single is wound with 1 piece of wire and the 15tx2 with 2 etc. More winds = more power, roughly speaking.

not true mate, a 15x1 has more power but less rpm than a 15x2 and a 15x3 has less power than a 15x2 but has more rpm and so on......also the lower the turn the faster and more powerfull it is, I.E a 9x1 is a lot more powerfull and has a lot more rpm than a 15x1.

or you could just go to brushless and save the hassle of skimming the motors and changing brushes lmao

[st1vo]

Yup, go brushless!

Less turns = less resistance = more current draw = more power (if your batteries and esc can handle it!)

Just a bit of info if you're a newbie:-

After 25 years of playing with RC stuff it finally dawned on me.

If you want a faster car and more enjoyment from the hobby the upgrades you need to make are (in order):

1. Charger
2. Batteries
3. Vehicle
4. Radio gear

and so on!!

I spent years with crap batteries and chargers! Change them first!!
