Looks neat. Similar in concept to those alarm clocks that display the time via a rapidly swinging row of LEDs. Yours is probably a "tad" more involved/complex though. :wink:

cool - what rpm does it run at?

Very cool! So, the next version will use 24,756 RGB LEDs?? That would be a 3-Megavoxel display... Sounds like a plan! :mdr:

Nice. All we need now is that 300A 50V or more ESC made for some of the crazy hardcore HV guys out there. A new challange would be a Motor controller capable of at least 600Kw (Basically up to 900V and 700A) for a very high power and up to 30,000rpm AC Induction motor. Must be compact as well.

900 RPM, or 15 rotations per second.

A race car, but not F1 (If the opportunity is there why not :whistle:). It will basically show everyone that electric can and will be faster then gas. It seems that is the one thing most everyone seems to be concerned with. I have found the battery supplier that can provide the cell to handle the demand. Just something to showcase what electrics can accomplish.

Sweet the beginnings of the a real "hologram".

Metallover 01.21.2009 07:48 PM

:surprised:

I wanna see that in person. You say you're in kansas? Do you take tours?

Or at least a video?

AND do I see a ton of lipos in one of the pics?

MTBikerTim 01.21.2009 08:21 PM

That's pretty cool. Do you have any video of it?
