Something sounds wrong. Using the
http://scriptasylum.com/rc_speed/_top_speed.html calc, here is the RC8T with 46t on 4S with LPR tires. Thats ~26mph, without factoring in any ballooning. Looks like you'd need to go to 14t for ~30, 16t for ~35, and 18t for ~40mph.
Code:
Differential Ratio: 4.3
Transmission Ratio: 1
Other Ratio: 1
Spur Tooth Count: 46
Pinion Tooth Count: 12
Total Voltage: 14.8
Motor KV: 1800
Tire Diameter (inches): 5.6
Tire Ballooning (inches): 0
Motor Current Draw: 0
Motor Coil Resistance: 0
Spur/Pinion Ratio: 3.83 : 1
Total Ratio: 16.48333 : 1
Tire Circumference (inches): 17.59 inches (446.86 mm)
Rollout: 1.07:1
Total Motor Speed: 26640 RPM
Vehicle Speed: 26.93 mph (43.25 km/h)
Effective KV Value: 1800
KT constant: 0.75 oz-in/A
