well i found out that the school i'm studying at has free web connection so i'll try to hook up here as much as possible.

yes light you got it right, i was kind in a hurry but i meant it when i said that the li-ion battery will do, i'll check it again later.

what interested me is this

http://www.instructables.com/id/EDWYJYSF4NW2IUA/

anybody could find me the specs of the things that the girl attached to her skates? i wanted to cross chek em with my numbers

i looked a nothing found
sorry

i know i've seen it somewhere. it's in the workshop where i used to hang while making the reverse axel engine. ya know, the engine i mention before that cause one of my crew burnt his hands.

here, from wiki. don't know if it'll help or not.

what i meant was the specifics of the electric engine in the grinder

i can't spend too much time at the pc cause i've got lots of english classes but i brought my physics book with me and i'm doing some numbers on the precise friction

oh... i'll try to hook that up. wish me luck. i'm in another sleepless night for this thread.

lol good luck
dont blow up XDDDD
im just letting everyone kno wim still here

sleepless night are a stupid thing

you work 50% of your potential and the subconscious has to do double work to make you notice obvious things. my best ideas came when i woke up in the middle of the night and just tought: Holy shit is that simple!!!

btw i snatched an hour for this project but i can,t really find the specs of that thing. i found an awesome burger maker near the school tho *_*

why must you mention burgers? it's 3 am here and i just got hungry. man. now i have to ride for an hour to find a burger stall that still open in this time of night.

for the sleepless thing, i can't sleep more than 3 hours even if i wanted to. there's something wrong with my brain or something. once i sleep for 3 hours, i woke up wether i wanted to or not. so i better off dedicate myself to this project.

i'll try to ask the workshop i've been hanging out to see if they got the specs you needed. i've hold one of those in my hand a month ago and i couldn't see the possibilities for this project. somebody punch me.

any questions and i can ask my science teacher she knows alot about engines(sp)

So, hows it going fellas! any progress??
not going to talk about my progress since it had some failures.
but ill gladly recieve a topic update, like if there is something new that might be a better idea to work with?

i thought u said u had the AT ecept the battery

hey if you guys are trying to increase the speed start of with getting the best bearings possible you'd be surprised at how much of a difference there is between the bearings that come with skate and the high quality ones I'm talking up to a 30mph difference in speed

Are you sure there is a 30 mph difference? Most professional skaters can't even skate 30 mph, so I don't know how you'd calculate a 30 mph difference. Even going downhill, I've never heard of a 30 mph difference.

normally you wouldn't use mph to calculate the difference in bearings, you would use friction values. As well, the at's you'll end up making with this project will either be a) enormous and unpractical, or b) small and decent for at's but will break easy and lack power. Even after you get the perfect bearings, and engine and powersource, you still forget that in AG they use a sensitive control system that uses weight pressure to activate controls in the AT. You're telling us you're going to fit a circuit board and sensors for this thing too and make it small?

yes, Vudoodude. That is the plan that we are all working towards.
