This motor can only be geared according to the quality of your packs. If you have better packs, use a bigger pinion. Otherwise you will get poor performance with high gearing if your packs aren't up to par. Don't worry about heat. Basically it will heat up a certain amount no matter what gearing is used and no more than that until you gear really really high. Peak efficiency happens at above 100 amps.
