ABC is an option...?

Oil filled hub motors are showing around this much loss but all the time every where they go, for a LOT less sustainable power output and are limiting max temperature to maximum allowable magnet temps.most people would be horrified at the extra 100w of consumption from this

Hotrod, what is this motor going into?

This MegaRotor is going to spin at around 6000rpm, any ideas to balance it? DIY preferably...
GITech said:I will be able to purchase two 80-100 motors in the next few days. I plan to attempt the same thing you have here. It will be going in a "KX-100" 6 speed transmission.
You can help me know if I should go ahead and do it by giving an update on how yours is turning out.
I have saved for 2+ months just to be able to purchase the two 80-100 motors so this is very important to me. I would greatly appreciate your input.
Does anyone think having such a long stator (two 80-100's put together) will produce any negative effects... ie; lower efficiency, etc?
Miles? 8)
Please and thanks,

The reason? there is no application for a motor of such dimension out side of our little band of goofy brothers on e-bikes & mopeds. Also as an outrunner, there are other options once you start looking for motors that will deliver the kind of power your serching for (montenergy & lemco for example, but again nothing of compairable weight or power density)You just don't see any loooong outrunners, so I figured there must be some reason. Maybe I'm on to something here?!
