a magnetic field is not unlimited strong.

A lower KV motor with the same size rotor has got more torque than the very same motor with a high KV.

but a 60K spinning motor is most likely out of its efficient range and not necessarily more powerful than the 30K spinning motor. I do get your point though, but this is something to consider;

In an ideal world motors would spin all the time on 60K, but in RC vehicles motors spin up/down up/down.

it takes more time/energy to spin up/down a motor on 60K than on 30K usually a higher turning motor is a smaller one (so more nimble in spinning up/down)

But a vehicle which is geared from 60K to 3K on the wheels has got a higher gearing ratio (20:1) than a 30K to 3K (10:1), this gearing ratio makes it harder to accelerate and to brake. But this time it's not the motor which is holding things up, it's the speed of the mass. But...... what is the use for more torque? if a 30K rpm motor has got enough torque to do an instant wheel-spin on 4 wheels, with more than enough power to launch the truck to warp speed in the blink of an eye, and pops a wheelie like nothing else?

Ask Novak, they use 4400kv motors on their hvmaxx, which are not known as the best and most powerful setups available. they have got a 2-2.5 more kv than most other motors we advice.

the balance lays somewhere in the middle. Which is around 30-35000 rpm.
