Motor power estimator

No load speed Stall torque Power estimate
RPM g·cm 101 W
Electric motors generally lose torque linearly as speed linearly increases.
Since power is speed multiplied by torque, the highest power output will roughly be at 50% of the maximum RPM.
Actual motors do not exactly behave this way, so this calulator is a rough guess-timate.
Formula: Power = ((MaxRPM / 2) * (StallTorque / 2)) / 97667;
