Also as someone who managed to accidentally stall a 775pro into a 100 to 1 versa (10:1 and 10:1) this season, I can attest that the 775pro will fail before the versa will.
Where is the 100 N-M stat located? From what I see, the load rating guide only includes safe ratios.

Or are you calculating the torque from the safe ratio?
