I probably ought to know this by now, can someone explain what the numbers 380 (King2?) 400 (BeltCP) 450, 500, 600 etc refer to? I thought this might be motor size like 40, 50 etc size for nitros, but I had a 400 motor in a powered glider once and it must have been 4x the size of the one in my King2

and with motors, like the 3800KV fom E-Sky is that the power in watts? It surely can't be KV - KiloVolts! if its kVA (watts) then 380 would be more believable

I've seen brushless motors described with about 6 numbers, are these watts, poles, whats?

thanks!
