Alltrax 4800
Hello again Irie....Just a few questions about your ME motor. I got a new ME0909 4kw, 100 amps continuous, 300 amps for 30 seconds. It pegs a 200...
Yeah, I learned all that the hard way. I doubled thrust when I went to a 24 volt 86 lb thrust motor on my kayak and gained only 1 knot in speed....
I found out how and now I know why the trolling motor companies play hide the salami with their motor specs. Using the conversion tables, my 86 lb...
I just looked up that 160lb trolling motor. The specs said max RPM is 1500. That is gonna be about 5 mph even with a bigger prop. I don't know how...
Hello again. Do you know of a way to convert ft lbs of thrust to ft lbs of torque?
Thank you for all your help. I have decided to go with a top mount semi long tail set up. The motor (4 hp ), coupling and about 6" of shaft will...
I am looking at the motor you are using. With controller it's over a grand and produces about 12 hp at working loads. Impressive. I need to be...
Appreciate the info. I was using a 3/8" stainless rod 26" long with a 3" brass bushing thru hull for prop support. The prop was a 8" 3 blade. It...
Your surface drive boat has me intrigued. How long is the drive shaft and how many bearings do you use to stabilize it inside the sleeve? How did...
Thanks. I guess there is nothing to do except go to a straight drive, quadruple the power with the 3 hp 2000 watt motor and see what happens. I...
Thanks...That's what I got also. I think the hp and torque increase ( from 34 inch lbs on the 24 volt to over 80 inch lbs at running loads of 2k...
I watched the video of your surface drive. I don't know a thing about this type of electric propulsion but am quite interested in picking your...
Is there a formula to determine if it is possible and what the power requirements are to push a hull through it's mathematical 'hull speed'...
Was thinking about a light weight foil to achieve planing but I am not really interested in jamming a log or some other floating object through a...
