Changed my mind on the gear ratio, decided to slow it down to 13,000rpm on paper due to strain on the motor etc... glad i did, as i tested it today and its a tad current hungry on spin up.... works ok though;

should be able to get the current draw down, belts slightly tight at the moment, and the timing on the motor wasnt set right.
