This sounds really promising. Getting full control over the cheap controller would really make it a nice piece of hardware. Keep us up to date!

Wow, you really did a lot of research on these buggers. When I get my karts back in, I'll see If I can get more pictures of the 2017 purchased controller and the 2018 version. Specifically fet and microchip pictures.

Some pictures of various internals of BOMA/BOMA clones.

Some other general information and findings. The ilap system is composed of a Encoder: (This USB's into your computer, and outputs eithernet to the bridge sensors.) Bridge Sensors: Place these every 2 feet. They daisy chain with ethernet cable, and are what pickup the transponders. Transponder: The ...

Trying to track down information on the transponders and system for the racing series. Confirmed working for Power Racing series! Link below. https://www.getfpv.com/i-lap-drone-transponder.html It would appear homebrew ones have been made from nanos with this code. https://github.com/RaceFPV/CoreIR ...

This is the setup that was run in Raphael for San Mateo 2018. It revolves around this little guy. This one was selected due to memory size and price. There are many variations of this, some with built in amplifiers (not needed with powered speakers) and some with a built in headphone out, but I beli...

I am going to use this as sort of a dipository of theories, and assumptions that I am basing the 3rd version of steering on. Features: Steering Bar/Bike Handle style Why? The steering bar is much easier to implement, BOM effective and one of the easiest ways to attach thumb throttle and brakes from ...

Rick I would be interested in going in on a full cars worth. Need to figure out what the price per 48v/2kw module would be. Assuming the deal is similar to what we got before, I'd put in.

Changing only Tire Size The general rule of thumb, all things remaining the same, if you make a larger diameter tire, you will have less acceleration but more top speed. If you shrink your tire diameter, it will accelerate faster but not have as high of a top speed. Changing only the Sprocket on th...

Yeah, when we did the original 5 karts, we used the 14" Harbor Freight Chop Saw. It did alright, I didn't like the flex though. I just bought one of these, and am excited to see how it does. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0030M2TCC/ref=sspa_dk_detail_2?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B0030M2TCC&pd_rd_wg=gu9o...
