Certainly all the dyno prmeters need to be discussed.Thud said:Good catch,
I forgot the temp monitering in that post.
I originaly thought measuring at set times of duration will be nessisary also.
I am more concerned with the durability of the drive components than smoking a test motor.
I suppose if a motor is clearly under stress attempting to make the touque ratings of the challange, it will be considerd a "fail"
then any measurments performed using what ever standards we determine (I perfer a standardize procedure to elliminate as much speculation as possible) will allow us to gage the motors against each other.
A thought would be is to add 4 mn loads in levels of three (4/8/12 nm) by adjusting the motor throttle for each load to reach a total of 12 mn. At each 3 levels take a wattage and rpm reading and a freespin (no load) reading at the same rpm as the three loaded readings. ? By stage two you will know by the wattage increase that some motors will not handle stage 3 for too long. In those cases just get the figure in and shut it down before the smoke. 4.8/12 Nm...
