After a lot of research, I've decided to scrap my plans for a dual motor setup because of it's lack of efficiency. So I need the help and advice of all you guys in deciding what motor to use for my setup. My goal is to be able to cruise at 30-35 mph and still be able to climb hills at >20 mph. I currently have two turnigy 6364 motors

and am using a golden eagle pulley system

With the motors KV of 230, the gear reduction gives the system a no load speed of about 37 mph at 36V. I already have everything ready to strap in a motor with a kv of about 250 but I'm afraid that my motor right now is underpowered for what I need it for. would I be better off just biting the bullet and getting an axi 5345?

What are your recommendations for the perfect motor? (preferrably less than $200)
