Does that motor rating seem right? 6000kv seems within the useful range but I don't understand the 5.5t, that seems like really low turns for a 6000kv. Does turns actually mean anything anymore or is it just a reference?
I think its about right , it does semm low but some motors have higher kv then others with the same number of turns i.e : novak 5.5 = 7400kv , LRP 5.5 = 7000kv , orion 5.5 = around 8000kv and speed passion 5.5 = around 8400 kv
So i think its right but wich motor is it that your looking at .
Also your question is off topic but try to post it on another thread that talks about brushless motors .
