With your high center of gravity and shorter-than-normal wheelbase, you don't need to be geared for 19 feet/sec - it would be very difficult to control at that speed. Change that 5:1 sprocket ratio to 10:1 and you'll cut your amps in half (for a given wheel torque) and still have adequate speed.
If you modify the gearing for more torque, you will have to be extremely careful with the throttle. Adding a
slew rate limiter to your joystick would limit your acceleration and help mitigate the wheelie-popping.
PS - You and Kilo Foxtrot 7 need to take your bickering off this forum.
