I am really enjoying this forum as there are a lot of pretty great ideas and information here. I am building my son and electric gocart. I made the mistake of purchasing a motor before buying the controller. The motor I purchased has little information on line to let me know what type of motor it is, so that I might purchase the right controller for it.
I have been told that there are PM (permanent magnet), Series wound and Sep/Ex motors.
I purchased this motor (not at this price!)

Can anyone give me some advice on how to safely navigate this problem. I don't know which of these categories this motor falls into, or what to do to find out. I have searched the internet and there is no really go specifications document that I can find that answers the question of what type of motor this is.
I may have to take it apart and take pictures of the inside, but I really don't want to do that.
Any advise please?
