You should try a pair of VESCs instead of the TZs, then you could limit the current and avoid anything blowing up! (plus you also get proper low end control) http://www.enertionboards.com/electr...or-controller/
I never used the tz85 with simonk, the times it burned was with the botbitz firmware due a faulty motor.
Today started welding the frame, it is made out of 3,2mm hardox and it's nose is made out of 6mm hardox.

Great shape, really cool stuff
That's gorgeous!
Nice build
Man, you should leave that thing unpainted. It looks gorgeous!
A sweetass paintjob wil do far more for it than the bare Hardox.
I'm seeing something along the lines of a black body with deep purple edges and white pinstripes...
today made a first test drive. But there is a problem the shock absorber's where the gearbox is attached to are to soft.
When the wheels need power the gearbox is pushed backwards and the belt slips. I have to make a ring that will hold the gearbox in place but still make it possible to flex.

How are you keeping internal components from rubbing against the cans of the drive motors?
On the above picture the wiring is a big mess, i will do some nice cable management to prevent cables hitting the motors.
today made two bushes that will hold the drive axle in place and made a test drive. It works perfect and the motors are still able to move a little.
