However, team 111 has had huge success by limiting the speed control to only 50% when you want to move slower. Only when we want 100 percent by push of the thumb button on the joy stick, we speed off. It's all about the proper gear ratio. There are ratios to maximize speed and power with each motor. You just need to know the magic number

Yeah, but the guy was talking about using software control on the drill motors in high gear... major loss of torque there.
