Default RE: Motor and Gearbox Testing

If you get a 268 rpm reading it is pretty scale for a sprocket of 55 mm o.d.
55*pi*268=46,307 mm/min
46,307 *6^-0.5=2.778 Km/h and the Tiger's scale speed should be 38/16=2.375 Km/h
In other words, your reading implies a 1:1 speed of 44.448 Km/h. As you've made the tests without chains, etc. I assume that the maximum speed of a HL Tiger should be very close to the real max. speed of a Tiger or even a bit slower.
