    eCumbent Bike - MAC Motor 8T - New Controller options

    Thanks Ill run some numbers but I'm hoping that my mission profile will be low enough average power that I can get away with hiding the controller away in the battery base

    eCumbent Bike - MAC Motor 8T - New Controller options

    Are you aware of 21700 cell packs that still support the base mounted controllers? I have some cells that I can use for a build so that's my area of research

    eCumbent Bike - MAC Motor 8T - New Controller options

    I'm planning to switch the battery anyway to be honest, the 15s Lipos I have from 10 years ago are functional but things have moved on a bit and I think i'll move towards 21700's

    eCumbent Bike - MAC Motor 8T - New Controller options

    If I did look at the baserunner should I be considering the Hailong or the Reention batteries? Again there seems to be some info floating around online about whether these have remained compatible with available controllers?

    eCumbent Bike - MAC Motor 8T - New Controller options

    As nice as the phaserunner and baserunner options look they aren't cheap! I was hoping since I wasn't requiring such high performance that there may be some cheaper bits available that will still provide some smooth reliable running in the setup I'm after?

    eCumbent Bike - MAC Motor 8T - New Controller options

    Wow, amazing responses already! I'll take a look, that baserunner certainly looks tidy, I might have to keep my eye out on the classifieds to try and bring this build in to some kind of budget I can get my head around :)

    Oh, also forgot to mention, the current controller is pretty bulky! I'd love something a bit more compact that can integrate in to the build a little easier.

    eCumbent Bike - MAC Motor 8T - New Controller options

    Some years ago (2103!) I purchased a MAC motor kit from Paul over at em3ev to put in to a home built, high(ish) performance, recumbent trike. Going back though my communications with him at the time, what a patient a knoweldgable chap! Unfortunately life got in the way, my interests moved to...

    Currently I am building my own CA style device, but this is bery much in development. But this is a great suggestion :) I am more interested at the moment as to whether I will be able to calibrate in this type of soft start in to my current controller? thanks again

    MAC motor worries

    Another cellman order it is then! New clutch with the new gears will go in as well. May as well put some nice phase wire upgrades in at the same time. I WILL make this motor work! My only other question before raising the order is regarding motor controller. As seen in earlier posts in this...

    MAC motor worries

    After replacing the clutch and having the motor working for 4miles happily I have now managed to sheer the keyway holding the clutch to the shaft. I am not having much luck with this motor at all! Are new axles available for these things?

    MAC motor worries

    I would at least like to check the settings, and I need to set my LVC anyway. It shouldn't have done but it has already managed to damage a clutch (no soft start setup???) A quick google hasn't resulted in much info on the programming, just some dead links to software. What would people...

    Right, Hall replaced, I actually did all 3 as it was easier this way. For others reference these are the halls I used: http://uk.farnell.com/jsp/search/productdetail.jsp?SKU=1470593 The motor now works. In conclusion I have replaced: Clutch, this was only working one way Hall (Green what was...

    Thanks for the update. Any chance you can photograph the angle of the halls in the 8t just so I can compare mine. Thanks in advance :)

    I will try and replace my hall as soon as I can. At least you got a few years of use out of yours before it broke!

    But I have tried the controller with a new hall and magnet and it does work. (outside of the motor, waiting on epoxy before I can do anything)

    Going to fix this and then see how she preforms. Will hopefully find some time to do it tonight. Still can't believe my clutch failed though. Will plug the controller in and see what the settings are. Thanks to all that have helped me diagnose the issue, fingers crossed I can fix the thing now.
