Abstract
This undergraduate thesis documents the design considerations and specifications of building a personal battery-powered go-kart. This includes designing and building a custom brushless DC motor for use in the drivetrain. Details of the fabrication and assembly processes are included for reference. The motor was not finished in time to be able to be tested, but the performance of the go-kart has been estimated through scientific calculations.
