    Undergrad Power needed to keep a 200lb object in motion

    i have a 14.7 LiPoFe battery. i plan to take care of the acceleration by using a PID with encoder feed back, so that the voltage supplied controls the output of the motors.

    I plan to install torque limiters so there is no counter rotation or burnout of the motors.

    Undergrad Power needed to keep a 200lb object in motion

    the motors runs 300W continuously at 30A. and I have 2 motors totaling to 600W +/-5% (the 5% as per manufacture specs). My code is made to run the motors in sequence. ie- one runs at max power and .5 seconds the second powers on and the other coasts. so for a .5 of a second the total output is 600W.

    Undergrad Power needed to keep a 200lb object in motion

    Hi guys, So I'm building a small electric skateboard, and I'm having trouble understanding how much power I need to keep the board in motion. The total weight of the board is 30Lb and I am about 170Lb. I want to maintain a speed of 15Mph when not kicking my leg. This is to be assumed on a 1...
