Posting this here because I couldn't find any info on these mid drives. I'm trying to figure out how to add a throttle. They had a concept bike built with one

Something is wrong with the torque sensors in these motors. The harder you apply pressure to the crank the motor decreases in power. While a very minimal pedal speed / power will give full power on PAS. This problem has been mentioned by two other owners of the Neco MM18. So it's not a fluke.

Neco has been unwilling to help through their e-mail so far.
 
The controller is probably programmed for a different sensor than they actually used, so that the sensor changes output voltage in the opposite direction than the controller expects.

If that's the case, maybe you could build a small inverting op-amp circuit
between the sensor signal output and the controller input.
