Yeah they are definitely cheap.
My concern is if they are cracked also inside the cable shielding. I'm gonna peel back more of the cable and see how the insulation is holding up on the phase wires. The cable is too long anyway.
First I thought it was just the stripped part of the yellow/blue wire that was cracking but then I stripped some more of the cable shield and then it seems to be under there too. It can be a nasty surprise if it starts shorting inside the cable.
Cold definitely makes it more stiff but to the...
Hi.
I noticed that insulation of the wires to the motor has cracks in it and is falling off (pictures attached). Why is that happening is it because of heat, the motor has always been very cool and cable as well.
Has anyone had the same problem? Should I replace it with thicker wire? Though...
I measured the output from throttle and did have the motor running. Throttle goes all the way to 4.9V but at 1.4V the motor stops accelerating that means from 1.4V to 4.9V nothing happens, that is all changes in position of throttle the motor does not spin any faster.
Effective throttle is only...
Hello.
Finally my build is coming together but I have a half twist wuxing throttle (from em3ev) and it feels more like an on/off switch then a throttle.
When riding I'm always letting go of the throttle and can't seem to find a position where I'm not accelerating.
Is this just the way this...
Alright I think I have figured it out. I followed instructions at https://endless-sphere.com/w/index.php/Determining_the_Wiring_for_a_Brushless_Motor
Now the motor takes much less amperage and does not have this rough sound.
If someone has the same setup like me here is the combination...
Hi.
I'm having trouble with my first ebike build. Which is that the motor turns in right direction but it is loud and rough and draws high current with no load (blew 20A fuse).
Poor video but you can hear the sound when the motor is spinning.

Funny to hear such different opinions on DNP freewheels, some say it garbage then others have used them for thousands of km.
I'll begin with the Shimano 7 speed 14-28t see how it goes. But thanks for the offer.
Hi.
I have been searching online to find 8 speed freewheel for my hub motor ebike project. Are there any good quality freewheels available? Aslo 11t is not very common it seems.
What freewheel are you using?
