Re: Determining Motor Speed?

We're using 775-18's.

What doesn't seem to add up? Running the two motors at 100% power through two Victors gives us the 3600 RPM as measured at the wheel. Looks like we're losing about 25% of the potential motor free-spin RPM through the speed controllers, gear train, shooter axle bearing misalignment, etc.
