The Electric ATV Conversion Ep. 2 - Unboxing

Welcome to the second video of the channel, and the second video in the series of converting a conventional gas powered ATV to an electric ATV.
In this video the MOTENERGY ME1507 BLDC motor is unboxed after having arrived in Denmark from California. The electric motor delivers 14.5 kW of continuous power, at a nominal torque of 32 Nm, and 44 kW at 100 VDC with 120 Nm of peak torque. Price=$1,029.00.
-Furthermore I'm taking a look at the 2002 Arctic Cat 4x4 500cc final drive axel, that have also just arrived, from Colorado.

The quad that is converted is a 150cc Texas King Off-Roader (copy of Yamaha Blaster), originally with 12.5 HP and a four speed gearbox.

The scope for next video is to insert mockups of the electric motor, battery pack and gearbox in the chassis, to gain better knowledge of the available space.
A video explaining how to calculate battery capacity and size, form a given set of objectives and constraints, is also in the pipeline.

Love all the details that you give on the motor, controller etc. Very helpful. Keep it up?

Old shipping guy once taught me how to remove a heavy boxed item. Cut open the top, fold the box flaps down on the sides and flip the box over putting the opened side down. Then just lift the box off the item.
