I'm not really much of an electrical guy, but my interpretation of the data sheet shows that you could draw 480 amps for 5 seconds. However, I will guarantee that with 4 CIMs geared at 5.5 fps, you WILL slip way before the motor is even close to stalling, regardless of which wheels you use, blue nitrile, AM high grip, or any other.
