Just one comment: Your "combined motor stall current" figure seems to be purely determined by motor selection, as it doesn't vary with changes to internal battery resistance or circuit resistance. The current displayed on the "stall conditions" graph, on the other hand, does seem to be calculated from the relevant values. Is there any reason for this?
