| After reading a lot of post over the last two days, and the last two days of flying. I prefer the 8 turn motor
Here is what I have came up with. I have both motors mounted in two Beams, everything else is the same. 2221-6 on 11 tooth and 2221-8 on 13 tooth. Both running Thunder Power 2200 Extreme V2's. My timer is set for 4:30 min I fly my routine and end at the beep on the timer. Both fly very well and feel about the same. The 6 turn has a little more head speed but boggs a little (not bad at all). The 8 turn has a little less head speed but seems to not bog at all. At the end of the flight the 6 turn motor, has the lipos at around a 130 deg and I put in around 1700-1800 mah. The 8 turn motor ends with the Lipo around 110 deg and I put around 1500-1600 mah back in the pack. All in all IMO the 8 Turn works better for me. Keep this in mind I have run the 8 turn motor for a while now and only started to run the 6 turn motor, so it take me around 10-15 flight to really decide if I like what I have changed on the heli. Really I am being nit-picky at which motor is better. Alot of the reason I prefer the 8 turn is your get about the same power and it's not as hard on the packs, so they will last a little longer.
I hope that gives you some idea about the two motors

. Also after watching most of the guys video's of the 6 turn motor flying they seem to have a pretty high head speed and I really don't hear there's bog like mine did. I guess everyone flys a little different and there collective management is different.
