programming for a slow accelleration
« on: August 19, 2019, 01:11:03 AM »
      I'm presently powering a 707 pound electric car with a 10 KW 72 V. BLDC motor, using a cogged 1" wide belt and a 4.3 to one reduction to a 10" Mini single drive wheel.  When I apply to much juice, the cog belt skips.   I am thinking of going to a 1.5" wide belt, or a bigger front shieve (so more cogs are involved), or using an idler pulley to involve more cogs on the front shieve, or biting the bullet and going either to a chain drive or a two step reduction.
     But before I do any of that, I seem to remember that I can reprogram the controller for a slow accelleration.  I am about to try a square-wave controller, after two sine-wave controllers have been sent back to china.   Has anyone tried adjusting those accelleration parameters in the controller software?
