Hello all, I am making my next built and I’m looking at the R-Spec Drive kit, and I cannot find any specifications telling me the KV on it. I am trying to input the motor KV + the 1:1 wheel ratio into a maximum speed calculator. Does anyone know the KV on this kit, it’s the one on enertions website.
I’d be running this build with that kit if the KV is high enough, as well as an FOC unity & a tb 12s4p battery with the Samsung 30s.
Yes I know, but I want the weighted speed to be at least 40, and I can do that with 110mm wheels, and a belt driven system, I just don’t know what motors to choose
doesn’t matter you will need a lot of power and a huge bank
its kinda a trade off of low versus high kV, too high of a kV and you might not have enough torque to get up to speed and too low of a kV and you don’t have enough top speed
You may think you want to go 40mph until you break some bones from falling of your board going only 23mph.
I am now comfortable at going 34mph. I don’t want to go faster because I know the eventual fall will hurt badly.
Of course I now ride with armor and would probably be safe or safer from breaking anything now.
Also if you plan on doing this anyway dont forget the protective gear and you better know the trail you’re taking by heart.
From experience, I’ll take torque over speed any time as long as it can go at least 30mph. Hell I’ll take 25 even probably if it’s on at air tires.
I’ll find out soon.
The bigger problem is skill, with the best of setups calibrated you can only hit 30mph tops without major issues. also the wind feels like your pushing against a invisible wall
