motor wind

How does the wind (or number of turns) of an motor affect an RC car's acceleration, torque and top speed?

Both "brushed" and brushless motors are typically classified by the number of turns (or winds) of wire they use. Brushless motors are also classified by their Kv constant (more common in 1/8th scale applications.)

See our article about motors for more details on how the winds affect the motors performance.
