I got a motor mounted up on the LeToy for a RC style power system. I will be using a Castle ICE HV160 for now while an EV controller I am developing is in design phase.

Power system:
Astro 3010-6
12s 10ah or 20ah zippy lipo
ICE hv160
Magura throttle
Home made DSP for throttle to PWM converter
Hyperion 12s charger or raw DC power supply for charging
Battery Medic devices for balancing


I also laced up a matching rear 17" motorcycle wheel for it, I think it looks boss and I will be keeping it this way. A shot with 26" tires is in this thread for comparison.

All I need to do is tidy up the wiring, make a battery rack, and get chain tensioners and chain lines dialed in. And a rear brake would be handy. After I broke the last hub motor I sold the parts to a buddy. I tend to break every hub motor I come across. so this is the next shot.

I would REALLY like to see a video of you riding a wheely on that going about 30 mph. What kind of HP is that putting out.
