It was just the one off Amazon. It looks great and the size of the motor is to scale on the bike size but it's just not enough power for use from a a dead stop. If that's not an issue then go for it. :) Could be an excellent e-bike conversion (which is what I normally do). There's some 80cc conversions out there and even a few Harbor freight predator 212's that people have done.

How many amps was the battery producing to the motor and controller
@TexasNEV
@TexasNEV 6 ай бұрын
It was a 45A controller, which is the correct one that matches w/ the motor. The BMS was a 50A. The battery pack was capable of far more current than what the motor needed, which is what you want. (45A x 72v) = 3240 Watts into the controller. You can push these motors harder with the motor cooling fins (out there on ebay somewhere) and ice in between hard runs. Love these little things.

Anyone know if the LCP trigger has a lot of "creep" at all? My friend has one and when I pulled the trigger it wasn't smooth at al, but it was creaking as I pulled it (by feel, not making noise). Like instead of moving back perfectly smooth it would move in increments. It wasn't really bad or anything, but I really wonder if they're all like that or if there was something wrong with his gun specifically. Like, if I pull the trigger back slowly, it will go back in about 1/8" increments, kinda skipping along the way. As much as I dislike the SCCY CPX models triggers, they two that I pulled the triggers on were smooth like glass the entire length of pull... but the LCP was nothing like that.

But there are guys that care deeply about this and they respect and appreciate that amount of power. Its a wide, wide range, L2. I hadn't planned on getting my L1 this year as I haven't built or launched any in 10 years. But from May on I decided to at least make an L1 attempt by next year at that time. So spent the spring and summer then flying low and mid power as I have since 1990. Its been so much fun, I really enjoy doing this again then getting the L1 cert on 11/4/23. The last 10 years alone the amount of things like the chute release and OpenRocket I just found this year. Its been so cool to see this stuff has been developed over the years I hadn't paid attention to the hobby at all. But I would like to get my L2, then do a few DD L1 rockets, and fly higher impulse L2 successfully for a few years before I think about the L3. But ill be planning it along the way for sure, then when it's time I have a few willing to help that are L3 so it looks good! Very cool again, I'll look for future vidoes!
