† Torque values in this column are extrapolations from actual measured data at lower currents. They are intended for reference only and not as actual performance data. The exception to this is the torque value shown for the WarP 13, which is from actual dyno testing.
* A careful review of the listed torque values would raise the question of why the TransWarP 7 shows nearly the same torque value as the ImPulse 9, a larger diameter motor. The ImPulse 9 has a very short armature stack (~4.5"). The 7" motor was designed to produce a lot of torque for it's size and it has a VERY long armature stack (~7.5"). The 7" motor (16.62") is also much longer than the ImPulse 9 (13.6"). The 7" motor produces the torque at a lower RPM than the ImPulse 9. This is true across all the motors we carry. As the motor size increases, the torque capability increases and the RPMs drop.
