Warning -- spoiler: (Got this from Steven Jones this morning -- he's the Castle engineer working on 14xx series motor testing and tuning...)
From: Steve Jones
Subject: 1415 2400Kv dyno results
to: engineering
Summary:
This thing rocks!
With 32pitch gears i hit a peak efficiency of 88% (!!!!) but i didn't have a low enough gear ratio and ran out of brake on the dyno.
...
Overall this motor performed excellently.
88% through gears into the dyno -- And with gear losses, the real efficiency is even higher...
All in all, excellent news on the Neu/Castle motor front.
