Finished the hybrid-electric Power Wheels
Ukraine Train:
If you missed it, I was asking about how to wire this thing up a while back. Well today we finished it and ran it for a few minutes with no problems. The two motors are 6V each so we originally wired the fog lights and motors in series so that the 14V from the alternator got knocked down but the car was really slow so we rewired the lights on a separate circuit and then just wired the motors in series so they get 7V apiece.

That's pretty cool.Bonus points for creativity.

I espicially like the osha-approved FingerGrinder (TM) chain guard.

Hah, very cool. So the motors DO work in series. Interesting...Nice work!

Looks great, glad it worked. What's the function of the little hopper looking piece on top of the engine?
