AW HECK YEEEEEEEEEEEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CAGK PROJECT FINALLY COMPLETED!!!!! I don't even know what to say, you really stick with it to the end, even with the things happening!! I salute you ^^ I saw so many youtubers stopping just after one of two bench tests, or simply trying to run it and failing after not seeking enough knowledge to really utilize it. But you're the first that i saw that made everything in a single project, from the first tests, to the hall sensors, to the new controller and the PWM modulation all together in a single project, it became something bigger than the sum of its parts, i loved to follow this project to the end, now i want to see what specs are the new go-kart have, maybe a QSMOTOR, or an Etek/Motenergy unit, i will wait anxiously for the reveal (PS: About the top speed test, i didn't saw you utilizing the reduction in PWM, maybe with a Speedometer app for you to visualize, after getting top speed again you could reduce it to 75% or 60%, maybe then it could make up to 50Km/h)
It really makes me happy because you are since the beginnings! Thanks a lot for the inputs/ideas that you gave me, specially with the PWM (what a discover! I didn't know anything about it). A year ago it was a bunch mess of steel, and now it's a complete different thing! For new project I picked up a 2-stroke 100cc go kart that I got it running raising the fuel tank above the engine (with the stock tank I had no luck), I tried with a small fuel pump and floods the carburetor with gas and I don't want that. Probably I'm going to build a bench/frame for only the engine (to keep it) and mock up all the electric parts to the chassis, maybe I went a bit overkill with the setup but I want this kart to be a rocket 😂. The QS 138 90H was a candidate, but I discarded it because shipping from China to my country wasn't expensive at all, but the import taxes would be more than the double of the value of the motor + controller. I chose a 48V system to use the same battery as the CAGK, the maximum rotational speed of the motor I bought is 4000rpm (5000rpm overvolting to 72V). Thanks a lot for all the support, I really appreciate it!!!
@@OverbuiltByHenry I always like to help everyone when i can, specially if their projects draw my attention. For this new project i would love to ask you for some specs, but that will spoil the surprise when you show the motor and controller, so i will be waiting anxiously. Best of luck to you!
I didn't see if you installed an amp meter along with a V meter or post what the max power turned out to be. I would like to know how this project rated in watts of power consumption to calculate the HP of your motor. I guess I will have to build one myself and find out so I can decide how much battery capacity to plan on. I'm thinking an extra battery that is not being discharged would be nice to have to get home on. Carry some flexible solar panels with you too.
I have loosely followed this build and I'm curious how much it weighed when you got all to the finished parts installed. I'm sure some of the pieces you used steel for could have been done in aluminum. It would be nice if this project had a longer running time, but that's the trade of when going electric instead of gas. More batteries would add weight fast and require more power to run so you don't get a proportional increase, and space is at a premium here obviously.

Bravo!!!
Are you still using 3144 hall effect sensors for motor?
Yes, I will revisit the project and change to 41F hall sensors.
@@OverbuiltByHenry ok thanks i just wanted to make sure that they work.

He installed a wattmeter in the start of the project, the screens for it are visible in the start of this video
great
Cool!, I have never seen anyone use an alternator to this efficiency, I would love to see how you wire the motor and your speed controller.
Thanks! I'm working on another alternator project, and I will try to explain everiyhing.
@@OverbuiltByHenry woo, wating for it🤞🤞🤞
@@OverbuiltByHenry I'm really waiting for that ^^

On this go kart driving at around 30-40km/h I have almost 2 hours of drive time
Please what is your battery capacity and voltage?
