Anyways, for some quick Q's: With your FET setup, the amperage limit is pretty high, from what I hear, so I'm thinking of getting the Team Orion Elite Stock 180 motor, and taking about 20-25 winds off the armature. It will have a bit of a high current draw, but I'm guessing the FETs you're using will be able to handle that.
If you go that low, it won't have any torque at all. I've tried a 15 turn double, and even it isn't an acceptable performer, IMO. (It sure has great top end just spinning with no load on the bench, though.) It takes about 1 full second or more to spin up.
