Yes, this is it precisely. It seems that one of the only applications for this specifically is a Segway/Unicycle/Hoverboard. So, I guess the complanies behind these devices must have all designed their own proprietary controllers. I have reached out to them, waiting on a response. Thanks!

So, I looked into the Grin Technologies controllers and actually found them still being sold at ebikes.ca. I read through the whole manual and couldn't find anywhere that it explicitly stated that you could reverse will in forward motion. They did look like nice controllers though. I have...

Thanks for getting back so fast. I checked out Kelly controllers. The KLS4812S looks like it would do the job, though it's slightly pricy for my application at this point. I'm in the proof of concept stage of prototyping something and was hoping for a controller to play with at a more disposable...

I have been searching for a motor controller for a sensored brushless hub motor that includes reverse capability. The application for all intensive purposes during this discussion would be very similar to how a Segway reacts. There will be constant swapping between forward and reverse based on...

But shouldn't harm right?

OK then I will post a few pics after I get mine mounted. You said 20C was ideal for this board...do you know if going to 30C then eventually 60C when paralleled might cause a problem?

Thinking 2 of these... http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__16228__ZIPPY_Flightmax_8000mAh_6S1P_30C_.html

OK awesome thanks for all the info...do you by chance have a pic of the two 6S batteries mounted in your emad battery box?

OK I really want to do this but also would like to AT LEAST maintain my current range. Is there a way I could do 4 of those 6S (2 series/ 2 parallel) and be able to plug in 1 charger to make it simple? Also what is the minimum constant discharge rate you think would be required for this board? 25C?

And you notice more speed and power with those? How about distance compared to stock SLAs? These lipos will only give you 5Ah compared to the (I believe stock 7Ah...

Cool...so to solidify this..which exact 12S would you go with from hobbyking? And which exact 2 (or 4) 6S would you go with from hobbyking?

Oh OK I got ya...you don't think there's a risk of burning out the controller or motor?

OK...gotcha. But the 6S is only 22 volts right? So two in parallel is still only 22 volts...

Hey...interested in the info you guys have here. Just got an EMAD 600w and I want to go lipo. It seems the 12s is the concensus here... Questions I have are...aren't lipos supposed to have some sort of management system seperate from the the motor controller? And how exactly do you guys wire...
