February 19-21, 2011
After weeding out 2 weak cells, I got it running! It even does wheelies and might get up to 25 mph. The first run was hairy with too much torque and too fast for safe hard starts. I need much more RPM, at least 60 to 72 volts to make this motor work right. I should know better, this is a 72 volt motor.
A few things I need to adjust for the next run:
1. Drop ratio from 3:1 to 2:1.
2. Get a 48 to 12 volt dc/dc converter for headlights.
3. Find and set timing to 10 deg Advanced for this rotation.
Wheelie photos to come,
Madman
