How to measure motor Kv with a drill and a multimeter

I came across this very simple and quick method of measuring motor Kv, with a handheld drill and a multimeter. Took about 1 minute to verify that my 170kv motors are in fact very close to 170kv.

These are the calculators referenced in the video.
