No Ben, don't do it. Steel is much harder then aluminum and if it bends, it'll be much harder to bend it back to it's original place  . So have you fixed you mount yet  .
" Good lutach second"
There are some very intelligent guys in the forum who has vast experience with such a project. I'm sure they'll be here guiding you. |
Thanks luciano, but i have no problems with steel, it will be built with braces etc to stop from bending..

I know I can, but twist grip would be pretty neat

Yea, but the speed controllers they use are not as efficient or powerful as any Rc controllers. Im probably gonna use my MMM for the moment in this one.

A searchin' I will go.
THanks for the info guys.
Now, since i want to retain the stock pedal system- would i be able to set a slight drag brake on the MMM and use the regenerative abilities of the speed control to recharge the batteries? I dont know how much power the regen braking actually saves..
