    Gravity 3 was geared for 15km/h.
    Tough as Nails for a smidgeon faster, 18km/h
    Bullfrog can get up to 14km/h.


    Lets take a hypothetical setup.

    250KV, 37V 250mm wheels.

    With a 5-1 ratio you end up with ludricous speed.
    0.25m x pi x (280x37)x60/1000= 97km/h

    With 130KV motors, it's still more than 40km/h

    With 130KV motors and a 15-1 gearratio you're back in the normal range. Between 12 and 20km/h.

    Some machines are build to be faster. But getting the power to the floor is a problem.

    I get 11.2km/h with the 15:1 ratio with the 130KV motors, 16.4km/h with the 250Kv motors.

    Are you on a Mac? I've tried it on PC/Android/iOS and it displays, although it doesn't work on my work Mac.


    Has anyone ordered from Alien Power before? Almost everything shows as out of stock.
