I'd like to weigh in on this.

A 45 turn motor is a fair inbetwwen motor to have a little of each but not a lot of either.

The more turns you have, the larger magnetic field will developed. The other part of the equation comes from the number of poles the motor has. The more poles a motor has, the slower the motor runs. There's a direct relationship between number of poles and torque, for a given field strength.

Let's say a motor is rated at 2000 rpm, has 4 poles and has a torque value of x. If the same motor was wound with 8 poles, it would have a rpm of 1000 and a torque value of 2x. In either case, the same amount of power is consumed.

Hey congrats on your first build. They are alot of fun, i read you were looking for someone who does decals. There is a guy in london ontario canada that does them. They are water slide decals. I just put clear coat over them so they don't tear once they are on. His website is j-bot.com or. ca... i forgot but go on their and check him out.send him an e-mail if there is something you are interested in.even though it doesn't say 1/14 scale, he should be able to do it.i got my decals for my Blue Mule build in 1/14 scale from him.he is extremely busy so it may take a few days for him to get back to you. He does decals worldwide. Hope that helps you out.The other way to go is if they are generic decals you can take the picture to your local print shop and they can print them on vinyl. for you as long they are not copyright. Although some will print them if for personal use only
