Then you could keep your batteriers and motor, just not using their "full potential"

Well, that's the thing, for best efficiency I want to keep the motor in a certain RPM range. The 1500kv was the best for my calcs based on the gearing and 6s batt. We'll see though. The "gear down" idea sounds good, but I don't know that it will be what I'm after. Don't know that I could find a small enough pinion. 9t is the smallest I know of - maybe I could find a 4t.
