1000 Watt Motor in a Power Wheels F150

I install a 1000Watt mobility scooter motor into an F-150 Power Wheels. It wheelies so hard I need a donut for sitting.

I love this.

Why doesn’t CMU have a course on building this thing?

Are you study engineering and Is that MIT? I'm wondering if I should study engineering. I have a lot of ideas for game controllers and computer case design that no one is doing yet afaik. Be careful with further tests. :)

I did study ECE. location is not MIT but a competitor. Engineering is the way to go.

Brilliant. I wonder how long it will be before Ford ask you to join their engineering team!

[@RetroBuiltGames]

Currently working on the same project with the same exact motor! The only difference is I’m using heavier batteries in the front! I don’t want my nieces and nephews to roll over 😮
