    I'm not defending him but, he has always been square with me when I call him.

    I do not make fun of anyone that has troubles with any supplier. I have dealt with TP directly also and they are very good, prices via direct are almost the same as Fine Design.

    *EDIT, no prices are not even close, sorry, just checked.... Whoa... My apologies. Must have had the "GOLD" series in my mind...

    I just bought the TP100 from an Australian vendor for just under Canadian $700.00 which I find very fair price wise , The fact that Fine is advertising his for over $1800.00 is ridicules and hi-way robbery .

    TPPower makes the TP100 and the TP120 . What I ordered and started this thread with was the TP100 , Fine is advertising the TP120 which is 5 inches x 5 inches and it is considerably more expensive than the TP100 but I could get it less than Fines $1885.00 . That motor is so overkill for any models we use its not even funny . The TP100 which is 4 inches x 4 inches and will be put is a 57" Apache is bordering on way overkill also . But hey I have always been a big block fan .

    Yeah but, it would be cool in go cart would it not?

    What kind of motor do you think I could use to power my wheelchair? I weight 185 and the chair is 32= 217lbs

    Then how would I gear it? The cars in the crapper almost so I need something

    You could get away with as little as 500 watts Ray or depending on how fast you want to go - I built a Cobalt 60 powered electric bike back in the early 90's and it did 35 kph with a range of 12kilometers per charge ( 42 x 4000mah/DR cells ) I have been itching to build another one with the current tech .

    Maybe I'll or we can start a thread in the anything electric section. I'd need hub's machined to replace the existing ones to couple the power to them.

    Cool.

    So, What Prop will match that motor ?

    I did some estimating .... with a 200 amp ESC (castle HV2 ice)

    x465 + 11s lipo = 58.46 mph and 195 amps and 22,970 rpm and 8,594 watts, 3.02 run time (11s2p) .

    or

    x462 + 12s lipo = 61.8 mph, 25,471 rpm, 187.5 amps, 9,062 watts, 3.2 run time (12s2p)

    intended to mount in a 72" Apache hull.....
