The 'big mac' spinning up on a cell_man 12FET.

Only the yellow and blue phase wires needed to be switched. The hall sensor colors are completely different than every eBike hub motor, but the pins match up so no wire swapping is required on the hall sensor.

2700rpm at 38.6V. 

8 turn MAC motor spins at 1600RPM on this voltage, so this is 41% faster per volt 
6 turn MAC motor spins at 2000RPM on this voltage. so this motor is 26% faster per volt.

70RPM per volt, versus the BMC 1500w motor's approx. 100rpm per volt
And versus 50RPM per volt for the motenergy 4201 brushless mars/eTek style motor.

Looks good so far.
