OK, So I couldn't wait to get this sucker on the road to see what 82V 40A is like, so I strapped 20S to the handlebars to give her a maiden shake down.
OK first the good news, 20S is awesome. On my last run with voltage down to 78V the APM recorded 49mph, I'll have to re-check with GPS etc but I think this setup can get me into the 50mph club.
Checked the controller and motor after 8 speed runs or so and still very cool to the touch.
The bad news. There is a strange issue with the controller I think. Basically if you turn the throttle and keep it turned it works just fine, but the moment you back off the throttle to zero then turn the throttle on again you get nothing, nothing that is until you get down to about 5/6mph then it kicks in again.
I have no idea what's going on, I didn't have this with my other Crystalyte controller. I will have to post a separate query in the forum to get some attention on this because it's not usable in the current situation. I can't keep stopping just to get the throttle to work.
Any input gratefully received.
