Im glad you brought back up Wye vs Delta winding. I need to look back into that. I have an empty 3032 stator sitting here ready to wind.
Lpimp- The 3032 is almost 8 ounces. It will be plenty of motor for most any smaller builds, and very robust from the front ring bearing. Think of the motor weight about the same as an inrunner. You would want 6 ounces of motor for a stampede, so stay with that same heft and maybe add a bit since you will lose gearbox weight. Motor weight is a pretty good indicator of how much power it can produce.

What are you going to use to lock the stator to the bearing holder?
Scorpion uses 30awg wire to wind their motors with. What Ga. wire are you planning to go with?
I've asked some questions and did some research on winding wire size. Lucien told me they use 30awg because it's easier on the workers fingers.
There is only so much room between the stator arms for wire. IMO, a larger wire size might be better. Something like 24 Ga or 22Ga.
If you look at the amp chart for wire sizes. Winding wire is really being pushed to it's limits, but the coating is high temp so it works.
There is an entire science to motor winding. I do want to try it. Maybe get a kit from Lucien, and fix the stator to be removeable. I could wind it, try it, then take it back apart and re-do it. Recording results like this could be very educational.
