1/8" end mill speeds in MDF - 24V Spindle

I had just doing some research on the exact topic! I found an equation that worked great. After a few iteration back and forth I came up with the following setting.

1/8" upcut single flute
DOC: 0.03"
RPM: 11143 (seems odd but its what the calc came out with!)
Feed Rate: 60ipm

Cut come out great, slight fray on the top edge but nothing a quick sanding doesn’t take care of. I’ll try to post some photos late as well as go into a bit more detail if you would like!
