In my case, if I continue to run 50km/h with Raptor2, it is about 15km.
432/15 = 28.8 Wh/km.
It roughly matches your claim.
Within that speed range, using a tack will increase the distance.
My conclusion is that if you want to run faster but you want to extend the distance, you have to load more batteries.
The higher the speed, the more battery consumption.
This is exactly why I didnāt pre order, Iād rather wait for the first run bugs to be worked out.
I know they are a great product and Iām super happy Dex is getting them out.
I also know the psychotiller thatās coming Friday is a great product. I cannot wait for 12s maytech 6 shooter madness.
As speed increases, the required power increases.
Even at 40 km/h and 47 km/h, the required power changes considerably.
As you say, there may also be a cause for the 2.1 motor.
if you want more speed and distance, I think increasing battery is the easiest solution.
@Lunasi canāt weigh more than 150 pounds, and Iād guess even less.
My 240 pounds and single 6374 metroboard was definitely one of the hot ones that didnāt go quite as far, but Iām sure the dual drive would have zippied me right up.
The 120 pound kids did alright on evolves, my 220 pound friends evolve motors were so hot Iām surprised damage wasnāt done.
The 55 mile metro would do a 30 mile ride in 2 hours (with a few 420 stops) and didnāt hit sag.
Seems like I averaged 20 mph. Just use one motor for long range!
yea it was even really windy when I was on my way with my raptor. I didnāt think the impact would be so high.
btw. is it possible to set two modes with the unity? Would like to slow my slow mode down to 40A and 40km/h for long range trips and leave rspec mode untouched.
just back from another night ride. man these things are just awesome. the sound of themā¦ the smoothness, speed, powerā¦ and the wheels damn. so stable even with loose trucks, no wobbles nothing. never had so much fun on a eskate, beyond words really.
but just realized I have an issue with the sensors. Focbox tool does the measurement and all looks fine but the sensor table is filled with 200 on one sensor and all others 255. so I am running basically sensorless. checked sensor adapter cables and allā¦ anyone with an idea whats going on? I will try torqueboards adapter cables but I guess the issue is somewhere else because focbox tools thinks its all fine.
@rideTastic & @LEE, are you sure about those numbers? On my MBS eATsk8, with 8"pneumies, dual 6374s, 1:5 gear drive and 200lbs. of meat and pads, I use <30 Wh/mi, or <19 Wh/km. Thatās with moderately aggressive riding, 20mph avg speed, 31mph top speed, slowing and stopping for stop signs and lights, and flooring it to top speed as much as possible. I have a hard time believing Raptor hubs are 50% less efficient than that.
