    It's the pole sync. Basically, the controller needs to be set to sync with the magnet position of the motor. That is universally true with any brushless system. The speed control is fine and the motor is fine. Just needs the correct settings. You need the exact properties for that motor

    65V is near dead for a 72V battery. The controller will also have a low voltage cutoff setting. A fully charged 72V LiFeP04 will be closer to 80V. Charge your batteries before using them, gotta take care of your lithium batteries.

    A good rule of thumb for matching electronics is to overspec the battery for the controller, and overspec the controller for the motor. The motor is the most resilient part, then the controller, then battery is most sensitive. Also, check the BMS on the battery and what the amp cutoff is. If you are pulling more than the BMS will allow, it will cut out. Then you'll have to adjust the controller amp settings to just below that and reduce the acceleration rate so you don't hit peak amps so fast. It is a lot of just running the vehicle up and down the road to find the settings that work.

  • @tylernooyen7826
    @tylernooyen7826 Год назад +17

    You might be dropping the voltage of the battery below cutoff when hitting the throttle, it did it before you went to drive it @19:30. You could be losing voltage through a bad return connection to the motor. Maybe run a dedicated neutral wire from the hub bolt to the main return lug. Also using a passive voltage monitor with a voltage over time graph would make the troubleshooting easier. I love troubleshooting this stuff, good luck brother. We deal with these kind of shenanigans regularly in electronics. Its all part of the dopamine rush you get when its optimized.

    based on my experience working with motor wheels, I recommend tightening the halves of the dropout between themselves with a bolt, or putting a clamp on them. considering the power, I would advise you to make a bracket from a c-channel beam with tightening screws to select the halves of the dropout. the main idea is that the grooves on the motor shaft have as large a contact area as possible with the corresponding dropout surfaces and the dropouts should be maximally fixed against expansion.
    Maybe if you have someone you know who owns the Delfast's TOP3 with a new dropout amplifier (it can be recognized by the 3 bolts sticking out of it), see how it is arranged on this bike. suitable as a starting point.

    Edit: I think the slipping in the axle is causing the hall sensors to freak out and make that stuttering of the rear end... I found an Endless Sphere post about testing the hall sensors by disconnecting the phase wires and spinning the wheel and testing the phase wires for weird voltage to show that the hall sensors are working correctly. A few videos in and it says to check the continuity of the phase wires to make sure they're not broken.... Also check for moisture in the motor case, that can be helped by drying it out and putting Statorade inside the motor to help heat build-up and moisture.

    I have been involved in electric transport for a long time and I can say that there can be several reasons for this behavior of the motor. To a greater extent, I am inclined to believe that you have the wrong combination of connecting phases or hall sensors. You should not rely on the automatic detection of the controller, since not all controllers can correctly determine the phasing on the motors, especially on powerful motors with low winding resistance. If you understand what we are talking about, then you can first check the correct operation of the hall sensors, the circuit is simple, connect three diodes to the outputs of the halls and slowly turn the motor to watch, the diodes should light up alternately, but they should never burn all three or not burn all three, at 120 degrees they light up in a chain 1-2-1-2-1-2 shifting in phases. Next, you need to check the idle current of the motor, it should be small. And finally, download the connection table of combinations of phases and halls and check the correctness of the connection by enumerating all combinations. If you need help write how to contact you. Good luck in job.

    A LOT of builders run the sensor wires and the motor phase wires together in a bundle to have a neater appearance. Common mistake. Inductance and the magnetic fields around the phase wires will affect the signals from the 5V hall sensors. Separate them as much as possible. A couple inches is usually all it takes...the three fat motor phase wires can be bundled, and the five skinny hall wires can be bundled a couple inches away.

    From brushless rc experience when you set up an esc you have to teach it where full throttle is by holding it at full throttle then turning on the esc then cutting the throttle down to off, this will tell the esc what range the throttle has.
    But as it has an auto tune I am not too sure, the other thing it might be is the 'c' rating of the battery packs.
    C rating relates to how much current the batteries can burst too, if the C rating is not high enough then the batteries wont be able to deliver the amps the esc is calling for.
    Are you sure the BMS boards are rated to pull the high amps the esc is needing?

    On the end of your swingarm where you slide the axle in, you need to drill holes in the end of it and put a tie link to hold the ends of the aluminum together. If you go back and look at the video, you can see the spaces are opened up and starting to separate, which is why you had the axle start to twist. Its not that the axle nuts were coming loose, its that the space was opening up and allowing the axle to slowly start to twist.

    Weld those steel tabs to the axle shaft. Then cut the back of the aluminum mount off the end of the swing arm so the axle can slide in from the back. Finally, tap the swing arm from the side to accept bolts through the holes you have in your new axle tabs in front of the axle. The longer the tab the stronger it’ll be and a bolt in front and behind your axle would be ideal.

    A good rule of thumb for sizing circuit protection is your load x 1.25 Your 300 amp might not be big enough, 260 continuous isn't it's max, it's just what it can do sustained, it can put out higher when starting out, it's called inrush current. That can be limited in your programming though.
    Battery voltage doesn't go down to zero. It's a range, a 72V battery is actually full at around 75V and dead at 60 something volts depending on what cells are in it.

    • @timothyliberty8052
      @timothyliberty8052 Год назад +1

      No, a 20s 72v li ion battery is 84v fully charged. If we're talking about LiFePo4 then a 20s is 72v max. I only discharge mine to 60v which is 3v per cell. There's not much power left in them under 3v and discharging them below that cuts severely into their cycle life.

    I would say it is probably the controlleror sensor. Seems like it is losing what position the motor is in . Don't know if that motor and controller is sensorless or not. But that might be your problem. Bldc motors need to know the position of the rotor at all times. Check your wiring.

      Electronic speed controllers also have a timing setting, if it was cogging from 0 rpm, then maybe wiring.
      But cogging when accelerating is more indicative of timing issue, the speed controller timing default may be set for maximum efficiency running smaller motors with less poles

      I thought the wiring on the battery cutout switch looked way too small and that would make an additional voltage drop also. Adding in an instant voltage drop directly proportional with motor armature draw. Motors suck huge amperage’s under load! If that switch Is in series with the battery, that is or will be a problem.

    Good luck with this: Really hope you get it sorted - it does sound like a phasing issue. Just a couple of observations on other bits. My Dirt Bikes Rear axel torque is 142Nm - you really need a socket on that and get it REAL tight once aligned.

    the battery is all wrong , check the low voltage cutoff on the controller settings . odds are its set to 60v or higher, as you draw from the battery voltage sag occurs , hitting the controller Lvc. You need a battery capable of 1000a discharge to run a 600a controller. This WILL SOLVE the cogging issue also.

    Seems like what hsppening is the plus from the controler is getting ahead or behind the magnets which is trying to turn the wheel backwards until the rpms slows enough to put it back in sync. Hence the the jerking or antilock brake effect.
