That makes sense. I guess I'll just use 1 in my calculation.

My next question is: what is the difference between "[High/Low] Gear Load Current Draw" and "Drive [High/Low] Gear Current Draw"? Why is it the second is calculated as 2x the first?

I have created a combiner for the Chiaphua and Drills, similar to many other teams, and have designed the gearing with 6in diameter wheels, but no matter what I do I can't seem to get the current draw to an acceptable number at a max speed of 11ft/s. This seems strange to me as I know that there have been teams with faster bots than that. Any suggestions?
