High C rating high motor wind Vs low C rating low motor wind

Which one will give the smoothest power delivery? A 6 or 5 turn motor with 30C lipos or a 7 or 8 turn motor with 90c lipos?

I would say lower turn higher c rating but also depends on your esc as that's what controls the power from battery to motor so need a decent esc to go with and what programming you set it to.

Smoothness will more likely be determined by the ESC settings for punch, timing turbo and boost. Also current limit, neutral point/width, radio calibration, and even the throttle curve, all can have an effect on how "smooth" the power delivery is. with these settings, you could certainly make the high C rating packs and high or low wind motors be as smooth or aggressive as you wanted.

Forgot to mention, you'll probably kill your 30C lipos pretty quickly running them with a 5 or 6 turn motor in a 4wd application.

Other things to help with smoothness.
1s rotors help(they can be used with 2s packs).
Also smaller diameter rotors also smooths out throttle.
Raising motor timing again will reduce punch creating smoother power!!
