If there is an approximate value, then it will be easier to optimize the gearing. I think 34.8:1 in low gear with 1 XL motor might be an overkill. Probably I can keep the reduction at around 24:1 for 1 XL motor considering that TLC Zetros is around 12.6:1 with 2 X L motors. Any thoughts on this? I'd say enough to spin all the wheels under it's weight on a normal ground or to climb at least 45 degrees up a hill.. Anything more is a waste and anything less might be too litte. Quote

Anything more is a waste and anything less might be too litte. Just tried a quick swap of the 1.66:1 motor drive to 1:1. Seemed to work as well as before. just faster! Now the final gear ratios are 20.97:1 in the low gear and 2.52:1 in high gear. I will probably decrease the high gear speed for more usability. At present high gear can be used to cruise fast only on a flat surface. Quote
