Re: Powerful motor?

It might help to have some size and weight requirements.

Are you talking about a mini sumo robot?

Are you concerned mainly about power or torque? What size wheels do you plan on using? Will the motors be a direct connection to the wheels or connected by a pulley or chain?

And what are you using for a battery or speed controller? That is useful to know so that we have an idea of what kind of current constraints you are working under.

The more specific your question, the more useful the answer.
