If you go to the RC Tank Combat page, then to the Related Links page, there is a link called Built-For-Fun electric Vehicles. They have a power calculator.
I have a wheeled vehicle that weighs 16 kg. It runs at about 5-6 kph, has four 12 volt kiddie car motors, and never uses more than 20 amps total or 5 amps per motor, based on never blowing the fuse. It skid steers, so it has some decent torque. I have a smaller 7 kg vehicle which is a robot that runs on outdoor terrain. It has four motors that I run at 12 volts and 27 rpm, so very slow. It never blows the 5 amp fuse. The motors supposedly take 1 amp at stall (24 volts). -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
