TBH vesc is brittle. Even VESC 6 are known for puffing magic smoke. TB is a big player and he moves a lot of vescs. The more you sell the more issues you are going to get and people usually get chatty when there are issues.
Here are the lessons I learnt.
Read the forums. There are small stupid things like how to prevent shorts. Vesc limits. (The damn thing is so configurable that if u programmed it to cook itself it will ask you how would you like it done)
Use well tested firmwares with wizards. Ackmanic is a good one
Buy insurance and use a trusted vendor. People will disagree with me but I had good interaction with @torqueboards and def trust them to have my back when shit breaks.
Lastly have patience. Shit will break. Shit will not work. It takes time to work out.
Yeah i know, but im more a fan of accleration than topspeed.
Maybe that will change after some riding experience.
Ive always been impressed with the accleration of the Raptor 2 and Evolve Gt when in GT mode so that to big reason for my build.
Im hoping that the acceleration will be good with those 83mm wheels, hopefully that good that i could keep up with the raptor 2 acceleration wise and beat the Evolve gt.
You are running dual right?
I donāt know what BMS you are using but some BMS react to too much amp pull by shutting off.
The packs from diyelectricskateboard does that so I capped by battery setting accordingly to their continuous rating. (BMS was rated for 60 so I had 30 for each vesc)
I donāt need the BMS to shut off when I am trying to climb a hill
Yes dual 6355 190kv.
According to Alberto at Eskating the bms is 40A continuous and 80A max.
I guess I have to try to see what works.
But I will try 40A battery max on each vesc first and if it has any problems I might need to go down to 30 or 20A?
It should allow for burst up to 80A so I hope I will be fine.
All the parts was shipped today so it should arrive next week
I do agree on the support from diyelectricskateboard, they been very responsive!
