Good question - I have never seen a power-torque-speed curve with error bars along the entire curve. Your reference to the free speed tolerance comes from the web site. And my experience using the CIMs and similar low-cost motors is consistent with a 10% assumption for the stall torque as well. Do you think otherwise? Also, have you seen much difference rotating CW versus CCW?
