golf cart plans

Hi all, does anyone know where i could get plans or find out how a golf cart works... i am designing a model which is similar to a golf cart and want to use the same parts as a golf cart uses to run it..... thanks

How big a model?

I did some stuff with remote control / robotics a few years ago and found a few helpful UK suppliers for parts who also had lots of plans, Ill dig out their websites for you.

Off the top of my head RS components has nearly every electronic and mechanical part you will need, but they can be a bit pricey.

thats great thanks, i will be designing the model on autodesk inventor as part of a college project... I will need to research the type of engine i require and how it works, thanks

Here are a few links to get you started

PS- golf carts usually have electric motors; golfers dont like being put off their shots by noisy IC engines.

hi nukecad, the last website is indeed very interesting and should be a great help to me, thanks for your help sir!

Stick with Nukecad's links.

Side view of an electric cart'll do nothing but, attached anyway.

thanks dude, im sure this will come handy when i reach the concept stage, just writing a design brief at the moment but thanks again, much appreciated:)

Do you happen to know anyone who can open an *.rfa (Revit) file?

RVT2008 file?

RVT2008 file?

yeah i can???

Ok! Sent you a PM with a link to the *.rfa file.

Looks nice but, I can't see any mechanical details.

Let us know how that file works for you.

BTW, it's 1800 hrs (6 PM) here in Pennsylvania, USA.

Are you burning the candle late?
