BE1 LYNCH TRACTION MOTORS 1991 TO 1996

BE 1 - MOTORS

The highly acclaimed Lynch pancake motors were to be used in racing form - i.e. balanced matched units. Four of these motors driving two propellers via chains also powered Fiona the Countess of Arran to attain the first officially recognised water speed world record in An Stradag. As may be seen from the above photograph, independent suspension was via unequal length wishbones and modified (Isigonis) rubber cones compressed by pushrods. This arrangement was not only simple and cost effective, but also reduced the all up weight of the vehicle.

At time of writing BE3 has no corporate motor/controller sponsor. If your company would like to offer support to the BE3 project, Please contact us: SPEEDACE.INFO The value of this sponsorship is around £60,000, to include speed controllers. The vehicle to beat is the Buckeye Bullet Jamais Contente.

RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY

Solar power from micro generation is now a growing industry as many Youtube videos are demonstrating. As these conversions and new builds gain in popularity electric vehicles will also gain favour, especially for households generating excess energy, which they could get better value from by using for transport. Electricity used in this way might reduce transport costs by up to 200%. So provide a higher quality of life with lesser environmental damage.

If buying an EV, it would make sense to have the latest future proof technology, such as battery cartridge exchange built into the vehicle, for self servicing, or exchanges at local stores or cooperatives. This technology exists but has not yet been incorporated in production vehicles.

When EVs become available with cartridge refueling, it would make sense to have in place at least a few service stations to cater for eventual demand. The technology would thus be in place when it is needed. Such a move when it is implemented will greatly reduce carbon dioxide build up in the atmosphere and ease the transition from oil based economies to abundant clean energy.

THE CHICKEN AND EGG SITUATION

If there were service forecourts to cater for battery cartridge exchange, that might in turn persuade motor manufacturers to produce vehicles with the system. This is a classic chicken and egg situation. Who should do what first.

Given the scale of the problem, it might be prudent for every corporation involved in the industry to at least investigate the potential that any emerging technology might offer for the future on mankind, which is after all the future of their company and eventual profits for their shareholders.
