sjcrss: What do you mean? There is a dropdown for the number of cells and another for the cell voltage which covers the various voltage ranges of both NiXX and LiPo.

Nick:
Thanks!

That theoretical speed looks about right for the values you entered, but I bet you got a warning for that RPM! 6s is a wee bit hot IMO, but if it works for you, then have fun. At that voltage and motor wind, current consumption must be quite high?

Also increasing the tooth count on the spur gear makes it geared lower so it won't go as fast, but have more power. Increasing the pinion is probably what you're thinking of.
