No, it's alot higher than that. The factory wound 20 turn Delta was 305kv and that was using a really small ga. wire. The AXI 4130/16 Delta is 385kv.

Check this out:

It's a 4130 6 turn Delta rated at 510kv, but it doesn't show the Resistence values of the wind. Resistence means alot. Even if you have two motors with the same amount of turns, the one with the least resistence will make more power and more kv.

The Wye wind has 1.73 times the torque of a Delta but 1.73 times less kv for the same wind. That's why I dropped a few turns to make up for that.

I'm sure it's over 400kv, but I wonder if there's a way to figure this accurately.
