hi everyone! im new to this so id really appreciate any help I can get! im trying to make a friction drive bicycle with an rc motor. here are the parts I am using below.
270 kv motor http://www.ebay.ca/itm/N5065-B-KV270-outrunner-brushless-motor-RC-airplane-Free-Shipping-/170880208162?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item27c9410d22
100A ESC
(2x) 11.1v 5000mAh 20C lipo. used in series to create 22.2v 5000mAh pack
servo tester as throttle
in total with my bike the weight is only about 180 lbs and for some reason its not pushing me I haven't programmed the esc yet could that possibly be it? also to create more friction I wrapped the motor in skateboard grip tape. if anyone has any suggestions at all please let me know I could really use some help to get this project rolling thanks!
