Forget the Speed prop, just get more batteries!

Are you suggesting I go for endurance rather than speed?

Dave,

I was jokingly suggesting 2(or more) batteries in series to jack up the voltage. Would go fast for a second until it melted down like Chernobyl.

You need at least 12 gage wire if you are going to use it.
