I agree. When geared high, the motor is turning less per mph so the coils/magnets will have far less braking force. I bet you probably have max braking at high speeds only, but then gets weaker the slower it goes. Also, I wonder if gearing so high caused excessive motor heat and the magnets are starting to weaken?
