Great info papers on motor design.
I gota believe that there is much room for improvement in a Crystalyte X5, now I can educate myself even more to see what needs to be done to make an X5 lighter and more powerful
Thanks for posting all this.
Cant wait to get some free time to read it.

Thanks Miles, great info there, good of you to take the time to put it all in 1 place. Now I just need to find the time to get through some of it.

Cheers

Shane Colton's paper on an MIT scooter motor educational workshop.

IMO, Shane Colton's 2010 Master's thesis (which discusses the scooter motors and then goes on to present an axial-flux motor design, as case studies) is even better: http://www.scribd.com/doc/32379147/Desi ... or-Control

I've taken a course with Jim and see him at conferences every once in a while. He's a great guy and these lectures are a very valuable resource

Thanks! They were on YouTube for a while and then disappeared before I had a chance to watch them all...

Hi learning,
The videos won't play. Do you have to join a club?
