I am a teacher working with students on a Solar Charged, electric motor, go kart. Pulled it out of mothballs last year, wired everything up and finished 2nd with borrowed batteries.
Some of the parameters on the charging side are going to change this year (not sure what yet) but we are trying to find ways to improve the kart overall, rolling resistance, less friction everywhere.
Better bearings and different front wheels/tires seem like a good start and we are open to suggestions
The kart we are working with is a Kandi Model 49FM5 with a Motenergy ME0909 electric motor powering it. We currently have 12 tooth sprocket on motor and 44 tooth on axle
