Joe we put 5 55turn motors on my dyno and they ranged from 4800-5900 rpm. Instead of running the dyno with a 12 power supply and regulating the dyno to 7.2v we ran the dyno with 2 of my good NiMH 7.2v batteries which give a better reading. We ran all 5 motors on one battery and then did it again with the other battery. The 12v power supply is fine to break in a motor but using a battery pack will give you a better reading of the motor this is how we used to do it for our race cars.
