I have adopted the method of testing individual motors that Bill Gowen uses which involves winding to some arbitrary % of Max. torque & then backing off in increments & recording the torque. The individual torque readings are added together to get a total raw score. The raw score is modified by a "weight factor" to arrive at an "adjusted score". I presume some of you are also using similar procedures.
I assume the purpose of the "weight factor" is to adjust the "raw score" such that you can compare motors of different weights to determine which motors are the "best", but I do not understand the origin (or derivation) of the formula. Weight Factor =(29.6-(3*Motor Wt.))/26
Can someone enlighten me?
