Hello everyone,
Im helping someone on a project (he might pop in to this thread) where he wants to power a quite large 2-seat go cart (roughly 400lbs empty) with an electric motor. The first setup didn't work.
First attempt was with a 60V 2000W MY1020 motor powered by a 60V pack using a Cyclone 3000W controller with a 6 to 1 reduction through the sprockets. The motor barely budged the cart.
We started talking about alternative motors and ways to get more gear reduction, and the 4800W cyclone came to mind. I have experience with these, and the torque they put out is insane.
What do you guys think?
