As soon as the guys at RCMod send the PHAST Motor over to me, then you'll see the resutls.
As far as the King 4.2, if YOU want to send me one to test then you'll get results...As I've previously said, on a couple of occasions, I don't buy any more motors (I've got PLENTY enough).

Namuna, just curious about the EM motors. Based on those readings, it doesn't appear that many of their upper end motors come close to delivering their promise RPM. Unless I'm reading this wrong, this would seem to indicate to me that one should think twice about those motors. Does this sound correct?

I share your concern, though they don't specifically claim that their motors put out certain RPMs...It IS misleading to name the motors inline with how Tomy names theirs (that are specifically named according to rated RPMs).
...Or maybe I got a couple of duds.

Or maybe its like AMD Processors
They say call the processor a Athlon 2000 or 2100 (like the one I'm using right now
But it really runs at 1500 mhz but it runs as good as or better than an Intel 2000 or 2100
Maybe its the same with Extreme. The Vanquish motor may run like a 3.8 because of magnets inside it or possibly torque but runs at a slower RPM

Um, Namuna, I'm estimating that the Phast motor is around 40,000-44,000 RPMs. Because somebody ordered one and said it is faster than their 4.0..... I use it and it is a little slower than my NX motor.....
Or maybe they sent me a defective motor lol.

I have a Perfection 3.8 and one of the Phast Motors as well as all of the motors ExtremeMicro sells (Hey, they're pretty cheap. It's only a buck shipping and the neat little motor tubes and the big transport tube are pretty handy. Besides, getting a pair of 150mAH NiCds give you some half decent backup spares if you don't already have a mess of NiMHs lying around). I know the name is misleading, but really now. Marketing is always like that. Their customer service is still quite good (and prompt at that). It's a cheap way to start to build your stock of motors too.
But as for motor testing, I don't have Namuna's setup, so I have to do things the old fashioned, prone to error way. I'll toss them all into totally stock bits and race them simultaneously. This is by no means as accurate as Namuna's method, but it should give us a rough estimate for how the Phast Motor compares to the Perfection and the EM-38 Vanquish.
One question I have is did you break these motors in before testing them? Does it really make that much of a difference when we do? These are small motors, but I guess uneven wear is uneven wear.

He did all those motor tests and was nice enough to share them with all of us and you tell him to spend $8 just to please you, who he has never seen.
