I may have the wind types mixed up, but am I anywhere correct with the rewiring?
Under the white wrap, there are 3 wires connected to each other, right?

That's a wye termination on a wave wind I believe.

Without changing the wind, if you were to sort those out so they match their respective phases, you would increase the kv by 1.73 times.

If that is currently 3000kv, I don't think this would be a good idea without changing the wind entirely.

A Delta wind is fine in the correct configuration, but I'm not sure how well it would work with only 1 turn.

I turned to the Power Croco site which gives MANY different configuration for many pole counts, but they are all outrunner motors.

We need to know the configurations of the factory Neu winds. They can be changed in various ways to produce different results.
