I have a Facts Machine 2
R1
12.3mm read 1435-1455
12.5mm read 1515-1525
Motiv
12.3mm (25.5) 1480-1490 rated at 1607 avg(inc sheet)
12.5mm S high 1580-1590 rated at 1698 avg(inc sheet.)
After several runs, rotor has barely lost 5-8 gauss. I run 1/12 with a 25mm fan. Motor has never reached over 140*F.
TSR
12.5 4 line ,1525-1535 rated 1640 gauss on sheet
It looks like the FM2 that I have reads 120-122 gauss lower than the rated Motiv or TSR rotors.
We also have a R1 motor that no mater what timing it overheats. The motor got extremely hot once, over 225*F and the rotor practicaly died.
It measured 844 gauss afterwards.
The stator had no signs of damage it still reads 36.7-36.8mohm like it read new. Its still runs hot with a new rotor.
