My thoughts exactly! (RS775-18, not RS775-125. Don't confuse the two!)

Let's look at the specs: (See attachment)

775 has more peak power. 775 has ~60% more stall torque. They have practically identical stall current.

The one additional advantage the 775's have is their ability to absorb and dissipate more heat than the 550s.

On a side by side, the 775 is a better motor in many situations.
