simplechamp · 03:19 PM

I'm not looking to go too fast, I usually gear for 40mph, but maybe since this is an on-road car I'll be a bit more tempted for speed runs and go for 45-50mph, but that would be max. I'll still probably start at 40.

I guess I'll just leave the gearing the same as I have it in the buggy now (43/13 F/R, 46/16 C, 4S lipo). I currently have an 1860kv motor, but will be changing to a 2050kv Tekin buggy motor to get closer to 30k RPM and also utilize the sensored operation.
