Pete, that Kv value is 2850rpm PER VOLT

So at a conservative 7.4V, you should get around 21000rpm

Is that enough for you???

See told you I didn't understand it

21k rpm....hmmm, bit pedestrian...perhaps I should run at 12v....

The number of motors is just bewildering and I've only looked at hobbyking because there's something else I want to get from there - and I can use some of the paypal funds all you dear video watchers have been donating

Most spinners these days are run on 3-cell lipos, 11.1v or 12v fully charged, so I would run it on 3 cells
