The whole amps question is moot really. So much depends on gearing, weight, drag, etc that is all but impossible to estimate. When selecting a motor, shoot for ~40k rpm for the better motors and ~35k for the Wanderers/Feigaos/etc. Then, just divide that max rpm by the motor kv to get the ideal voltage to run.
Nice info to hear Brian. That makes me feel better . . . when I run your calcs for the 40k rpms, my Neu 1515 2700kv comes out to 14.8v and that's what I'm running.
