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?

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.

Cool, look forward to seeing progress.

Be interesting to see what kind of drive system you use.

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

.and thats not possible with 50 ccm and 3,5 hp.just having fun with the car.max speed of 60 km/h is enough for me,but it can go much faster if i want but i dont want it.
