What is the problem with kiddie car motors?
If the tank is under 50#, should there be a problem?
KCMs would be OK for a 50 pound vehicle, but you'll also need to gear
them up a little (1.5 or 2 to 1) because they typically run a little
slower (e.g. 200 RPM) then our normal speed (e.g., 400 RPM).
Another potential problem is their size and layout. Since they
typically use plastic gearboxes, they take up more space than other
geared motors. But, assuming you have the room, that's not an issue.
