How much does that motor weigh?

Curious: what will you upgrade to?

Before upgrading to a larger controller on my drag bike a few years ago, one of the options I looked at was using a snowmobile clutch. You could keep a motor close to Max power with some sort of cvt....

There's still a bunch of us drag racing electric bikes. Brushed DC series motors make tons of torque and are more cost effective than permanent magnet or AC motors. There's various controllers out...
My point is that you might find a sled clutch that could work for you....

It's likely that 5K is the break speed of the motor i. e. speed where max power is achieved. Snowmobiles used for drag racing run a 2-step with the lower limit just below the point where the clutch...
I thought Steve built that with the idea of using the lock-up right off the bat. Does he say his old 60' times were 1.7? I must have missed it..

I believe they are moving forward with renewables at a rapid pace but they are so big it won't happen overnight. And charging ev's with fossil fuel generated electrons will still generate less...
Very neat car!
So - three motors? How many inverters? 400V or higher?
It looked to me like the steering wheel might be just a tad too small in diameter, driver seemed to be struggling a bit,...
I too am curious about the details but one article said they were making parts in China so that may have something to do with it. IIRC they had switched from Enerdel to Farasis on the Lightning,...

Good initial acceleration then peters out a bit on top end,...
The article says the top speed is 270, not that she hit that at Lake Gairdner. Killajoule ran 270 in September 2014 at the Mike Cook Shootout.

I'm pretty sure the 270 was at Bonneville. :)

Is this still the low voltage pack? Sounds like it...

With an Orion (and Torque) I know lowest cell voltage, min pack voltage, max current, etc. It has an output that can be programmed to signal a alarm or a couple of other options using a variable...
Looks great!

You'd be better off with a smaller motor and bigger controller (ex. Z1k). It really depends on your goals. Also, while the tranny idea is neat, unless you're racing it's not really necessary. Then...
I think it depends what your goals are: a 100V system is adequate for "commuter" type vehicles but you will not see a single high-performance vehicle running low voltage.
Personally, I think Luke...
Does this help?

Excellent article!
Do you know what the battery weight is on your Zero, Richard?
So about 90wh/mi or so. Very nice!
Richard, how much battery are you carrying?
