Go to Post Failure is in my eyes, the key to success. If you can deal with failure, look it in the eye, and conquer it, the hard stuff won't really intimidate you any more...and you can only get better. - Andy Grady [more]

Re: Who's done the math?

Maximum force due to wheel friction f = umg (u = coef of friction)
Max force for 1 wheel = umg/4
Max torque T = Fr = umgr/4
For u = 0.05
mg = (50kg)(9.8m/s^2)= 500N
r = 0.05m
T = 1.25 N-m

Much less than the CIM can supply...
