How high can you go on voltage?

NEU lists a max voltage on their spec sheet. Not sure that it's the "MAX" voltage but probably more of a recommended "pracitcal max" voltage for reliable regular usage.

I looked at it last night....it might have been 27v if memory serves correct.

For the 1515/1Y that would be a "loaded" rpm of 59,400. Kind of makes sense.

It sounds like that "max" voltage is related to the max voltage to achieve an rpm no higher than the max recommended rpm. If so, then all the different winds should have a max voltage rating that is different.

Take for instance a 34 turn feigao with a kv of 490. Does this mean it can take the 71v needed to achieve 35,000 rpm?

Usually, the limiting factor for voltage on any device is the dialelectric strength of the insulator - just like the limiting factor for current is conductor size and/or how much power it can dissipate (but power is more of a voltage and current factor)...

I would agree.

Finding the "Max" voltage value is like trying to find the current draw spec on a servo...............:019:
