Hm, the idea just came in mind, because the motors won't start without
the cap but still run, though nothing gets disconnected when its running.

What I meant was the width of the flat to be 1/3 or 1/4 of the rotor diameter.
Using the values for 1500 or 3000rpm Motors respectively.

Kind Words, but I fear I simply messed it up.
I only had the motor running once, it was 370W 2850RPM and came
from a water pump, compared to the small 6" disk it should really be
able to deal with the load.

Good luck woth your motor, let me know how things develope
