What if I measured to ratios from the output shaft to the wheels and used the tach reading to calculate speed? It would vary based on small things like wheel PSI. The Miata tone ring sounds good, but a little out of my field. The tach speedo would be inaccurate at low speed from centrifugal clutch. Would it work at high speed?
The gps is normally super inaccurate for me.
I am not sure if this is considered double posting, if it is I am sorry. What if I bolt the magnet on? Would that make the balance worse? With some thread lock it should stay on.
Can you somehow have the arduino detect ignition from the coil instead?
I can do that for the tach, and I will, but with a centrifugal clutch it would be very inaccurate for mph.
If it can be bolted through, while also through the crankshaft, while also through a non-magnetized counter weight, then it would work.
In that case I will just add a weight or make it have dual magnets. I am just gonna use the spark to do tach so this would be for speeds. I am somewhat confused by your wording, as magnets come in packs I would bolt two through holes on the drive sprocket at either end of the sprocket. If I get nuts & bolts the same size it should be pretty much perfectly balanced right?
I misunderstood. I thought you were drilling through the crankshaft. Disregard that then. Yes it would be balanced the way you describe.
No problem, thanks for your help!
No, just the sprocket on the drive axle. It gives me more room to work.
Lol yea thats way better than the nonsense I was trying to imagine.
