I remember this thing, I didnt think it was going to get finished tho.. lol

Looks like its still coming along!

What are you going to use to drive it? Chain? Or have you found a diff to fit in there?

Is that two ps050's? You don't think 1 will do it?
Hrem, Yes.. I see.

hi acc

maybe it works with one servo,I'll do some tests.

I have not decided about the engine.But I have had a few ideas.

I build it without a diff.for the moment.

most pocket bikes are around 50cc, so you might have to look at a moped or something similar for 100cc. Though 50cc with a few go fast bits and 8 or 10 thousand revs should do pretty good with anything that doesnt weigh a couple of hundred kilos
