Thanks! I never really thought about the re-gearing though it should have been ovbious, doh! Now, is there also a point at which increasing voltage and re-gearing will no longer be beneficial? I mean at some point the motor will be spinning too fast and cause overheating, right? Is this where finding the sweet spot of the motor comes in? Around 35K is what I've been reading on here.

But, the 9XL doesn't draw that many amps anyway, entjoles- what are you hoping to get by running 5s? I'm guessing more top end.
