@ari.robinson3 ай бұрын
It's not super quick due to the motor I'm using and the gear ratio of the transmission, but it's fully powered up to 60km/h, then tapers off up to 80km/h

Wow! This is such an amazing build! You've made me really happy that you shared this! My biggest question is why going with a brushed motor? I assume it's keeping cost and complexity low. But also at what point in the project you knew/decided to go with a brushed motor. Fantastic logging all the information with real-time viewing too. Never too many data sources.
@ari.robinson5 ай бұрын
Thanks! I actually purchased the motor for a different vehicle originally, quite a while ago, series would brushed DC motors were more common and cheaper. Definitely would go for a BLDC or AC motor if I were to get one now. I may have an upgrade in the future if I can find something for a reasonable price.

I'd love to do a conversion like this! This is awesome! What kind of range do you get? How fast can it go? I assume it's registered so it's legal to drive on a highway. Is it RWD or 4 wheel drive? What voltage are you running? how many kWh is the battery pack? can you charge anywhere or only at home?
@ari.robinson5 ай бұрын
I typically get 80-100km, speed is limited to 70-80kph due to gearing. Yep, I've gone through the process to register it as an electric vehicle. It's rwd by default but I can switch in to 4wd when needed. 72v nominal, 15.8kWh. I can plug in at any J1772 charging station (most home/public level 1 and 2)

You got my sub. Now do a complete video. What did you use for a motor controller? What is your top speed with the current setup, and what would it be if you could give the full 144v to the motor? How did you couple to transmission? Did you keep the 4x4 front drive?
@ari.robinson5 ай бұрын
Thanks! I'll make sure to address those in future videos. Top speed is roughly 70-80kph. I made a motor coupler to attach the flywheel to the motor output shaft. I still have the 4wd switch so I can switch from 2wd to 4wd for the snow/mud.

What is step pitch of ball screws? It seems something like 5mm? And steppers are directly coupled to it without any gearing, so there should be no playing in ballscrews? I have similar lather, but with trapezoidal scres and 2mm pitch, so first thinking to install it also directly, since I think it is enought to have 0.02 precision, and steppers like NEMA23 with encoders.
@ari.robinson4 жыл бұрын
They're 5mm pitch, since they're cheap ballscrews there was about 0.001" backlash. That should work well, I think it would have been nice to have a bit more torque on mine for parting off parts, but otherwise it was great
