I have a ebike with a triple motor setup for added torque/speed. All 3 motors are a unite my1016z 24v 350watt geared reduction motor. All motors have a freewheel system hook up on their shaft.
I have a switch on the bottom motor that is closest to the star wheel/chain ring so that I can engage and disengage the motor. At all times the 2 top motor are always spinning and whenever I click the switch the bottom motor switches in.
The problem I'm having is that whenever the switch is turn on and the bottom motor is engage I don't feel any difference from the bottom motor, there is no added torque or speed. It's almost like the motor is not contributing to the overall speed or torque of the bike that the 2 top motors are producing. So basically its just wasting energy with no improvement on my riding condition.
When I had just two motor setup with the switch on the bottom motor closest to the star wheel/chain ring, whenever the top motor is running alone and I click the switch to engage the bottom motor I could feel the added torque or speed. The bike runs faster and it also climbs hills easier but now with the 3 motor setup whenever the bottom one is engage there's no difference. I'm still experiencing just the power of the top 2 and no power from the bottom one. I was expecting to get more torque/speed due to the fact that is 3 motors are now running instead of 2.
What I am asking is that suppose the bottom motor is powered with a higher voltage(36v/48V) than the two top motor would i feel the difference in terms of speed/torque when the bottom motor chips in?
Would this be wise?
Would the bottom motor now spinning faster than the other two cancel out their performance? and basically it would just be the bottom motor carrying the load now?
Is there another way I could install the setup to use the same 24v volts across each motor and feels the difference whenever the bottom one is engage?
Someone was telling me that the chain would have to be mount a special way on all 3 motors so I can feel the difference, is this correct?
Please give me some tips on what i can do or what you think.
I anxiously await your comments.
