Nope. The difference of performance of a 12 turns vs. a 10 turn is more than noticeable and sometimes we felt that we need a powerful motor and cannot bolt them. The difference of maintenance of a 12 turn pushed to their limits is basically outrageous.

Have you think about truing your comm each heat and changing brushes each heat? Sometimes we need to do them due to the critical maintenance of this motor pushed to their limits.

I don't think that with a 10 turn limit we need to enter on a battery battle like we experienced last season where voltage is the critical point on a 12 turn motor rather than having a 10 turn limit and needed more runtime provided by cells like GT3000R.
