It IS very difficult to determine what the KV will be before winding, although basing it from similar sized stators and magnet strengths does help. The hardest part is that every stator fill is different. I don't think I can have any more wire pushed into my stator, the 5 strands of 22awg is such a tight fit I have to thread some of the last winds in.

I kinda eyeballed the fit of my wire. Put in a chunk of strands and said "that looks enough". My math was that 40 strands would barely fit.
