Brian;

You can not determine the r/t value by dividing one motor and multiply it with the turns of another. the more turns a motor has, the thinner the wires will be. with this knowledge, you'll understand why a low turn motor is able to take more A's than a high turn motor.

I once saw a trustfull calculation of an 8XL, and according to that it takes 2200 watts, at a 92 percent efficiency so 176 watts is lost in the motor.
