Here is a side-by-side comparison of the theoretical top speed using Tamiya’s Stock Motor, the Mabuchi 540 and the Brushless Novak SS4300 with different gear ratios. If you would like to calculate the top speed of your own RC car take a look at my Step-by-Step Guide on how to figure out RPM’s, Internal Gear Ratios, Tire Circumference and all the other data you need to know.

Here is the All-in-One formula:

RC Car top-speed calculation

Gear Ratio vs Speed

Please Note that Your R/C Car will not achieve these speeds!

These numbers are the theoretical calculated speeds.
