It works, but it's very slow, and the cracking/clicking noise that it • made when

Oh, and only the first speed is enabled, obviously.

This reminds me of my effort to add radio control to my 8466...

Same deal. It works, but is heavy, slow to start, and has an almost • unresponsive
steering. It also happens that backing up is faster than going forward.
Strange.

That is easy! The gearing is different!
Check which gears are used for each speed.
Than you can count the differences in rpm between all the speeds and even
the speed of your vehicle. It does not match off course due to the friction
in the geartrain and the underground the vehicle is rolling on.
