Incredible work. Would be cool if you could give us somewhat of a recipe? Which batteries, controler, kits and of course the qs180, and everything else related to electronics
Not including the burnt motors and frame, I probably spent around $3,800, but the whole build cost around 5600. I should post some drifting vids, thx for the idea!
It was discussed in the video, but I wanted to reiterate I've done projects like this, and it is absolutely critical to have a rocksolid motor amount. The motor cannot flex under load or you will have issues tensioning the chain. This is critical.
Awsome build thanks for the info! I'm working on a similar 96 volt motorcycle using a brushed lawn mower motor! Good for 170volts apparantly fingers crossed hopefully I dont burn it up!
That battery!! Superb work man, Subd for more. Consider making a 3m video, mostly showing results and performance. Then point that to this video so people can learn more. This project should definitely be seen, and that would help. -another new content creator 😎
The motor actually doesn't even feel it if I ride hard for like the fist 20 minutes, then it starts getting warm. I think the hottest I got was 110°F which is still nothing to what's it rated
I'm looking to do the same thing on a shifter kart (Front brakes) with the QS180 motor. You should add more keywords to your description like qs180, fardrive controller with the model number, and whatever else. So when people search for those things they find this. Have you taken it to a go-kart track?
Yeah, definitely get one with front brakes. Thanks for your advice. I'll do that. Also, I haven't taken it to a track yet. I'm definitely planning to though.
Awesome work my man, I just started my hyper kart build. Would love to see the solution you can up for the brake enabled lighting and maybe more info on your battery setup. I chose a ME1507 for the motor and I'm building a 24s16p li-ion battery, I see you opted for pouches, where did you source those guys from? 1200 amps continuous sounds a little too good to be true if I'm honest, were you able to confirm through controller software? All things considered this is a fantastic build and a very dense video, 11 min packed with what I could only imagine was weeks if not months of work.
I appreciate it, man. I bought my cells from battery hookup. They are called SPIM08HP. When I bought those cells I also thought that those cells are to go to be true but later found out that they can only output 460a peak in a 6p its no where close to what they advertise them. It was pretty disappointing when I found out but atleast it still rips. Even with 460a this this is a beast.
@@Mikelinnyk yeah 400 is gonna smack any way you cut it, 1000+ just sounded insane because that's where custom, several mm copper busbars are needed in order to keep up. I also snag from battery hookup. Just always remember, parallel connections share the load, series add it. My series will be connected with copper, and parallel with zinc.
@@Mikelinnyk avoid soldering at all costs, the cost of the damage imposed (potential shorts, ruining a cells capacity, altering the resistance of the cell encasement by heating it, etc) will be more than made up in the long run by investing in proper gear (kweld for spot welding (look into a method called copper sandwich spot welding) or sourcing proper copper and drilling/cutting to made connections. This is only proper advice if you want to push the envelope on current draw. If you are fine with higher volts pushing lower current, and the risks I stated above, then soldering is the cheapest, albeit most dangerous method. You should also look up matadors ampacity chart, it shows the cross sectional area needed to facilitate a certain current draw, bursting current can fudge the numbers but I believe his chart is for continuous draw and are very conservative because of it.
@BryceTheRoman so I'm a little confused with the series and Parallel thickness of the busbars. I want to send you a picture, is there any way I can have your contact info to ask
Really sick video and project. I am currently trying to turn a gas powered kart to electric. Is there a way I can contact you as I have a few questions about the battery as that would be really helpful for my build
Get a Lightning rods XXL motor it’s 18 kw 100 volts and only 550 bucks and I know the guy who builds them it is not cheap chinease parts make a vid and get one of them motors
I ordered a thumb throttle on amazon. Cut the thumb lever halfway and drilled a little hole where the cable goes through and mounted it to the skid plate
@@Mikelinnyk thats a lot mine already weights like 220 pounds without batteries and motor im using a 40kw freerchobby motor and SPIM08HP cells, what bms are you using?
I can provide a link if you want, but I got them of of Amazon for a good price. The lights take 12v and so do some of my other accessories, and to get 12v, I used a dc-dc converter to take 72v down to 12 and provide that constant power from my main batterys.
nice
I did enjoy the video very well made
Very good e-gokart!
Incredible work. Would be cool if you could give us somewhat of a recipe? Which batteries, controler, kits and of course the qs180, and everything else related to electronics
Thanks, man. I will definitely make more in-depth videos later on. Maybe even do a ride along.
nice build, how much did everything cost without the frame? make some shorts drifting, so your channel grows.

Hey! Sweet ride, how hot does the motor get?

Nice job boy 👍
That's insane. Hoping to build something like this myself one day. Keep it up!🔥
Good work! Looks fun!
It's a very cool and fast built 😮 go-kart. Thank you for the best video
damn this is super sick! I just got a razor sx500 and soon will be swapping it with the electro and Co 72v 11,000w kit.
Oh, right on! I also have an upgraded razor, and it's endless fun
Where did you get the lights from? They look insane

@BryceTheRoman what do you think about soldering bare solid copper wire on the series connections? Wouldn't they act like bus bars?

This looks awesome, do you have a link of where you got your tail and head lights?
fire
sickkk
Sorry for commenting twice i thought it dissapeared, but it did it again
Nice job👌
How do you wire up the Brake lights and headlights?
Was it actually 2.5sec 0-60 at 400a? How did you test it.
Draggy
Really sick video and project. I am currently trying to turn a gas powered kart to electric. Is there a way I can contact you as I have a few questions about the battery as that would be really helpful for my build
Thx, this is my Instagram, message Me on on there. Mike_ linnyk
Get a Lightning rods XXL motor it’s 18 kw 100 volts and only 550 bucks and I know the guy who builds them it is not cheap chinease parts make a vid and get one of them motors
What controller does a Lightning rods XXL use mainly
which ESC are you using?
Nd721800
How have you hooked up an throttle?? I am trying to do the same as you.
I ordered a thumb throttle on amazon. Cut the thumb lever halfway and drilled a little hole where the cable goes through and mounted it to the skid plate
How fast or powerful would a 1000watt be
Very slow compared to this
Does anyone know where i could buy 2 batteries with similar specs or would i have to build then
Bro 🔥
bro im watching this on october 12 2023 and wondering how u uploaded the video last month
How much is the motor and controller including chipping costs?
How much does it weight?
like 500 pounds with me in it. Not a light one for sure lol
@@Mikelinnyk thats a lot mine already weights like 220 pounds without batteries and motor im using a 40kw freerchobby motor and SPIM08HP cells, what bms are you using?
I'm sorry you had to through all that.
How much do the batteries, motor, and controller weigh all together, i want to put this setup in my hayabusa powered car as a hybrid option.
It's probably like 300 pounds
Didn't need all the extra bracing, your problem was the belt drive, with the chain drive will solve all your problems no doubt
No, I definitely overkilled the bracing, but it doesn't hurt it. I won't be competing, so it doesn't really matter.
Does anyone know what lights he has on and how he got them to have power?
I can provide a link if you want, but I got them of of Amazon for a good price.
The lights take 12v and so do some of my other accessories, and to get 12v, I used a dc-dc converter to take 72v down to 12 and provide that constant power from my main batterys.
@@Mikelinnykpls a link
How much is the motor
Like 600
I been stressing cuz I have a small motor pp
That's ok sime people have the ishue
First
This comment section keeps deleting my response, my instagram is the same as this youtube handle
48v can handle 72v but cant handle the amps
And that's what I found out later on lmao I definitely learned my lesson on that one
Just slap a GSX-R 600cc on the back of that thing then grip it and rip it 🤭
Good idea, but it's a little too loud
@@Mikelinnyk How’s the saying go? “If it’s too loud, you’re too old” lol
@@_Error_404_Goodbye lol, maybe in a future project
