The numbers don't seem to add up. Using the 84 rpm free speed from the AM web site:
At 12 volts:
stall torque = (12/12.8)*23 = 21.56 ft-lbf
Assuming max output power occurs at half stall torque and half free speed:
half stall torque = 21.56/2 = 10.78 ft-lbf
half free speed = 84/2 = 42 rpm
max watts = 42*10.78*0.142 = 64.3 watts At 12.8 volts:
free speed = (12.8/12)*84 = 89.6 rpm
Assuming max output power occurs at half stall torque and half free speed:
half free speed = 89.6/2 = 44.8 rpm
half stall torque = 23/2 = 11.5 ft-lbf
max watts = 44.8*11.5*0.142 = 73.2 watts
