FireManJim: Why not ask if the sprocket is changeable? It may come with the 14t/#35 but you might be able to swap it out...

Thanks for the photo. Would you post more please?

Frankyy: It is really cool. The linkage will be interesting because the clutch will need to be disengaged when neither throttle or brake is being pressed, but - with clever springs and things - I am sure it can be done.

Terribly excited! Might even be able to have one and make it to the December 5-7 Electrathon race at Disney. This is a totally new thing for all of the electrathon cars. No more having either regen braking OR coasting. Having both!

From what it looks like the clutch links the shaft when engaged and releases when disengaged. A gas engine, if the vehicle was stopped, would stall. Early in the thread they talked about learning how to use it because it can create a stall condition. I hope that is how it works. I have an...

I have a big opportunity to do an expo with Electrathon of America at one of the Disney tracks. Is it possible that the clutch will be available soon? This would be a new, and desirable, addition to the Electrathon cars and I'd love to be the one to show it off.

Can hardly wait. Glad to see updates here. Sign me up for one (or two if the lot of them doesn't sell out immediately).

ML-TOYS: That could be a problem, but imagine how fun it will be once you get used to it!

McKutzy: I also found the RotoCam clutch. Quite a lot of cost and engineering for what should be a simple device. I like this one better for both price and the simplicity. RotoCam has a market and DownsBrosRacing has a market and I don't think they will mix. ML-TOYS: I could see that as an...

I know I saw it back in the forum somewhere but can you reiterate the size of the clutch? Also, is the sprocket replaceable? There was discussion early on in the forum about the sprocket not being changable but I think that was only for your prototype. I have been looking for this for nearly...

Your website http://downsbrosracing.com/ isn't up yet. Very excited to purchase a clutch or two. 3/4" shaft is perfect for my Electrathon testing. Wanting to allow coasting and still be able to use regenerative braking.
