What makes a motor hard to spin?

So is the feel any indication of the power of the motor?

no, I wouldn't think so...

LOL Nope, no sir. It has nothing to do with how much power it's capable of, however, a larger motor will obviously have more 'resistance' than a smaller motor, so in that respect yes; but the power is limited by the stator really, you can only get so much power out of a given amount of copper material, at least according to the design theory of a DC brushless motor.
