Re: FIRST-made Scooter
I dont understand what Arko posted (sorry bad english comprehension) but why does it need gyros? I remember last year a guy made a scooter but it wasnt with the gear box..it was just 2 CIM's connected by one chain, it was cool

Look at the picture beside his name.

(Whenever someone says "scooter" around here, everybody thinks Segway.)

Re: FIRST-made Scooter
One of our engineers and his son made one using 1 CIM motor on a chain drive 3 years ago and it went about 4ft/s at their gearing. Slow, but it got you places :-D

Re: FIRST-made Scooter
K i calculated the gearing will be too low so i will create my own gearing...2CIMS mounted side by side...one chain goes around the furthest to the front of the scooter CIM while the other motor is used as a tensioner but also as a drive for the chain
