Mamba Monster Motor Malfunction?

[sikeston34m]

Your mamba max 5700 motor is a 2 pole motor. It's field winding is completely built from compressed copper windings. In this type of field, there is nothing for the magnets to be attracted to, unless of course, the windings are energized.

The CC 2200kv is a 4 pole and has iron cores in it's field windings.

The magnets of it's rotor are attracted to these iron cores. That's what your feeling when you turn the motor.

Ok great! Thanks for clearing that up. Is either of these designs better than the other? I would think the freely rotating shaft would be more efficient as far as coasting goes.
