newtonian mechanics - How do I calculate DC motor speed for a given load?


Suppose I have a robot of a given mass, and I'm choosing between 2 different wheels and 2 different motors to put on it. For each wheel I have the diameter, and for each motor I know the stall torque and free speed. How would I figure out which motor and wheel combination will make the robot move the fastest?


My calculations show to use the big motor with the big wheels, but the small motor with the small wheels goes faster than the big motor with the small wheels. I am not sure my calculations are correct, I need to know the correct way to work this problem.
