Default motor setup

when tuning your motors what do you guys think is more important.
rotor centered in magnetic field or rotor close to sensor board. i ask as most motors i have looked at do not have the rotors centered and apears that both are not possible it is one or the other.talking 13.5 stock here.thank you

I do it how trinity reccomends.

.8mm - 1mm between rotor and sensor board.

About 1 mm free play on the front of the motor.

You want it to float freely at the center of its field but if there is play, shim it toward the sensor as long as it doesn't push it from floating. Will just put stress on bearings that they arent designed to handle.
It seems the sensor boards themselves are a big variable with no two being the same though. So a specific sensor clearance prob doesbt matter a lot if you have a 5+ degree variance. We have seen some new motors come with as much as 10 degrees off on one sensor lol.
