Hi all,
having built my first 'leccy steed around a full sus trek fuel and a MAC motor, i have been bitten by the bug and decided i needed more!
I found a mint Big Hit for sale second hand and bought it on a whim. I then got on the phone to Crystalyte and ordered a HS3540 with the 72V 45A sensorless controller and the crystalyte cycle analyst. Im running 9AH of nano tech lipo at 20s / 74V.
First trip out today and this thing HOONS! Charged to 80V I managed an indicated 47mph! it pulls like a train and wheelies off speed humps....very impressed indeed. I'm thinking the computer may be overreading due to the 2.5" tyres, but even if it is its still way fast enough. Might take out the Sat nav to check it. Got home and had a play with the cycle analyst, it actually lets you program the controller so i've upped the current to 50A, with a full charge i should be pulling over 4KW on full chat, nice!
Anyways, i'll stop ranting now, piccies below.
