Hi All, New vid of 200 pounder Newman motor smoke test. USE DROP BOX LINK IN PREVIOUS POST #41 Talked to Geoff Miller and he was very glad...

Hi Faraday, The caps top out at 900V @ 2200uF. While I would love to see how high this charge goes I like to keep the smoke inside the...

If i'm understanding you correctly yes. But then again im an electrician who doesnt understand electricity so take that with a grain of salt :)

The wheel specs are 18 x 2x1x1/2 double stacked north out. It's not the trigger potentiometer or coil where the heat has manifested. I have put a...

The SG doesnt run without power assist as yet. I haven't loosened the bearings or fixed the aerodynamics and the wheel weighs about 5kg. There are...

Me too, I swapped the 200ohm out for a 600ohm and same thing. Voltage went up by about 40% and sat on about 80 degrees. I hooked a 15W x 240V...

Interesting experiment as above. Typically the 12.7V power source could only ever supply .811W to a 199 ohm resistor. After triggering, the stable...

Some Data on the standard SG with variable air gap. I started at the closest setting of 3mm then walked it out 1mm at a time until the lowest speed...

I posted a outrunner stator mold to Thingiverse if anyone may be interested. It uses the Babcock process with #8 steel shot. It can be used in a...

Please dont clog up this post. This is a standard SG setup with an assisted motor. 8 filar coil, 1 trigger, 7 Power. You can see the...

I have now hooked up the SG circuit to the 8 filar 18ga coil. Under power assist I can dial down to a speed where the transistors are only just...
