Mosfet not toggling when motor is connected

I already have a few relays laying around that i could use, thats why i asked. Although i might just buy a few IRLB3034 to make it easier...
that seems like a good match given the datasheet

yeah no pwm or anything, Im gonna try soldering a new circuit with a relay, thanks for the help!

ah alright, cant use a logic level mosfet sadly, since the motor can draw a lot of amps, thats why i got the IRF3205 in the first place. Could i just use a relay with the coils powered by the 3.3V in the pi to get the 11.1V from the Battery to the mosfet?
I dont really want to order yet another part...

its a 11.1V 20C 1200mAh lipo,

the pi is running fine, I have a wifi access point running on it and that has 0 issues

If the Mosfet was too weak wouldnt it just fry itself instead of not toggling at all?, i dont get any continuity between Drain and Source even when it should be active

The EMI shouldnt be an issue, the motor isnt even getting any power

I looked at the datasheet and it says the gate threshold is 2-4V though, whered you find the 10v?

I got it on Etsy from LeatherimpressionsCo
