maybe. probably. I’d like to hear from anyone who’s done it though. maybe there’s possibilities I’m missing
Is there anything that blocks you from doing it? It’s easy to test for you so why do you spent so many words about it?
Did you ever own a vesc?
from reading here it seems a bad idea. I’ve been asking this question for a while. http://vedder.se/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=371&hilit=max+motor+amp&start=10
id rather spend words than ruin a vesc, that makes sense to me.
do you need to own a vesc to want to know how they work? are you here to help or hinder?
ok skimmed through and i’m still not sure whats the point? I’ve looked into the vesc firmware more than bldc too but if that is the only limit a quick change to qt is easy.
if you really just want more power you should move on to a direct, x or wait for v6.
it doesn’t make any sense to set arbitrary limits in config software, they are mostly likely there to save your hardware. Once you’ve fully tested max limits and nothing fails, then pushing the limits is maybe something to look into…
if you read the thread i linked people are blowing their dvr chips and it seems based on the resistance. they’re using just shunts to test I guess in place of a motor and maybe their testing isn’t long or realistic. my motor at .04 ohms…I don’t know @saul even the max limits are not a safe thing
the big point is getting power. if I can get it now with a standard vesc I want it.
i guess an inductive load would smooth the current out more but still the question remains unanswered “can we do 200 motor amps?”, but I don’t want to be the guinea pig at 100$. I’ll do 40/150 today though.
What a nice gesture. You want others to try it out and be the guinea pig. 
I don’t know how someone who is building his own HUB motors has so little knowledge about the background. I don’t want to claim that I have more knowledge, but I am not building my own motors. 
If I would tell you, yes it is possible to do 200 motor amps would you trust me?
@devin I read your same Amps/Watts/Ohms calculation stuff everywhere on this forum. I don’t want refute or confirm them, because that will not come to an end like you can see in other threads about the same topic over and over again. Lets just say I don’t have any plan about that topic. But let me ask you some questions. Did you stand on a electric skateboard once? Did you have used/seen a VESC in real life once and looked/logged the Realtime Data while riding it? How did you measured the 0.0415ohm? All your calculation is based on that, but what if the value is far off?
the .04 is from the vesc foc test.
I’m not asking others to do it but asking if it will be ok. people who know more about esc than me (motors are simple in comparison) hopefully can say. I’m not looking for someone to trust on this, I’m looking for explanation. trying to learn. what are you doing
If you trust the 0.0415 Ohm blind you should have no problem testing the limit of 200A, because it is a limit coded in QT. Why should there be a limit? I think just that people like you can expand them. 
Waste time answering you.
there’s confusion: the vesc is variable and takes input from the user and EVEN WITOUT CHANGING THE PROGRAM you can ruin your vesc. assuming that the resistance test is legit on the vesc is a far distance from deciding to put the motor amp settings at the limit.
how would you suggest testing resistance? most multimeters, including mine, aren’t accurate to such detail.
Over 4 wire resistance measurement. I was thinking that you just measure normally with a multimeter…
I dont understand why you ask about changing the max value to 700A before testing the 200A limit. When you first asked about the idea to set the value to the max possible in BLDC tool and what others think about that it wouldn’t be a problem for me. But no, open a new thread, disrespect @Ackmaniac`s answers and talk the same over and over.
Seems as the Board can only turn to the left when the Motor is on the right side
