Re: D&D PDS High Speed Motor and 8:1 High Speed Gear Experiment...
I'm hoping you are right. When Vic built my motor for the old Mud Buggie it was a 72 volt. torque motor. The reason I'm bringing this up is I had a 4600RPM motor in it before and I had stock gears in the cart. It did fine for 2 weeks of testing it out in front of the house. Just short quick trips. I was told to watch the RPM's by them and Robby @ PQ. One night as I was checking some more mods out to it, I drove it all the way out to the end of the road, coming back I blew a hole the size of your thumb threw the back side of the motor. That's when I went to the torque motor from Vick at D&D. The high speed motor was over reved on stock gears. My fault and no one was to blame but me. I'm hoping they have figured out a way to do this. I really want to build a 72 volt sleeper for the beach next summer.
Mine may have been the voltage to I can't say for sure. It was a 48 volt motor running on 72. Robby & Carson had it as a door stop at the shop for a long time after that. I went for 2 loops in the road when it blew. 4 nice rear tire skid marks in the road. It wasn't so funny then but now I wished I'd had a video of it. They do build some nice motors don't they! |
