All of the novak motors are rated without load and loaded they seem to go down a bit. Thats the only difficult part in choosing one of them. You really cant calculate top speed like we do in the top speed calculator programs. I had a 5800 and it was an ok setup. I did make the mistake once of overgearing it and the controller puffed out a couple of puffs of white smoke and then the controller literally cooked itself to death. My garage still smells like burnt electronics because of that one.
