48 pitch gears are one of the easiest to experiment with since there seems to be a multitude of pinions available from many manufacturers.

Maybe you're not looking for a donation, but I could offer you a good deal, if you like :)

From what I'm learning, just about every motor has a "sweet spot" for RPMs and load/gearing, when it comes to brushless.
