saying a motor will have the same max power output regardless of winding seems vague. If you want a motor to have high torque for a short period of time wouldn't the motor wound to have a low kv be better suited?
No. They're the same motor. What part of same heat for the same torque isn't sinking in?
From a real world standpoint the opposite turns out to be true, and people have heat problems and burn up slow wind hubmotors with far greater regularity. I'm not aware of anyone burning up a fast wind motor, yet at 10rpm/volt and below, the examples of dead motors on the forum would fill trucks. That's because most treat current like a d#%k measuring contest, and controllers that can handle high enough current to burn up the skinny little wiring of slow wind hubbies are readily available. People even burn them up accidentally simply due to a lack of understanding of their real current limits.
Ignore sn0wychyld's mention of wheel size above, because wheel size has absolutely nothing to do with winding....same torque for the same heat covers that arm of the Myth.
You or someone else asked before why different windings are made:
1. The Myth remains broadspread, and the resellers who definitely don't know any better like the marketing aspect of "torque model" and "speed model".
2. Even the technical people at the factory may not know any better. Look at KF who started this thread with such certainty that he was right.
I've dealt with multiple factories who do "get it". They make exactly one winding version of each size of motor, and steadfastly dismiss requests for different turn counts. None are slow winds, since all had a Kv of 14rpm/volt or higher, and all their motors have had higher more consistent build quality than the generic parts motors all too common on the forum...no gaps in the magnets, spinning parts of the motors don't cut wire harnesses, no broken strands in the phase windings, no substandard halls, and axles are of adequate size.
