nuz69

Hello guys,
I have a general questions about the motor timing for the Castle Monster motors. They are 4 poles motor.
In Europe, people think that for a 4 poles motor, the best timing for max efficiency is around 5-6, but we can read in this forum that best efficiency is reached when timing is at 0.
==> Can someone qualified (maybe Castle Staff ???) can confirm or argue this point ?
I though that for a multipoles motor (like align 6 poles) the timing have to be between 15 and 20, if the timing is too low, this motor has heat issues...
Thx ;)
