Re: Sabvoton SVMC072150 controller review, variable regen *PICS*
I have the unlocked version. I can set the battery amps to 250 and the phase amps to 550. Maybe even higher. Limit for flux weakening is 80A in the Bluetooth app, but through PC application it accepts 200A. I did not try to ride at more than 80A of flux weakening so far. Do you think there is a risk...

Re: Sabvoton SVMC072150 controller review, variable regen *PICS*
I am running a SVMC072150 together with a 22S Lipo battery. I use a second throttle for regen braking. Unfortunately it only starts working when the battery is already down to around 40% (83V). The Sabvoton shows over 2V higher battery voltage in its software than real battery voltage. It seems than...

Re: Tightening Torque MXUS 3k v3
Thanks a lot for that attachment scheme! I would also prefer single piece TAs, but I did not find anything for a 16mm axle. An idea would be to install 2 TAs in a way like you outlined instead of the 2 spacers additionally to the 2 TAs which are already mounted. It would not be 100% symmetrical (wha...

Re: Tightening Torque MXUS 3k v3
I would really be suprised if a 3T winding would already saturate at 250 amps. I remeber I read something around 450 amps for saturation here on ES, but don't remeber in which topic. The difference when going from 225 to 350 phase amps was clearly noticable in torque. But of course I am not using th...

Re: Tightening Torque MXUS 3k v3
I plan to run regen braking later (after 5 times charging the lipos). I am using a second throttle for E-brake and have set it to 20A at the moment which has not much effect of course. Battery is 22S 16000mAh 20/40C. Max charge is 5C (80A), which I plan to set the E-brake to later. Controller is a S...

Re: Tightening Torque MXUS 3k v3
It is the fastest winding (3T) in a 17'' MC wheel. Resistance measured from one motor phase to another is only 67mOhm (including the phase wires). So I think 350 phase amps should be okay and motor did not get hot at all on my tests so far. Not sure if 450 amps would be okay, but it is already impos...

Re: Tightening Torque MXUS 3k v3
I went down to 70Nm now because I don't want to risk to strip the thread. Even though it is a 16mm axle I am not sure if 100Nm will be okay.

Re: Tightening Torque MXUS 3k v3
At the moment I am using these torque arms on both sides: https://img3.picload.org/image/dlcaaoow/dsc_0295.jpg I have tightened the nuts with 100Nm of torque and will retighten them after every ride in the first days. Do you think I can tighten with more than 100Nm or will it probably cause damage t...

Re: Axle spun inside dropout, Hall cable broken?
Thanks a lot for your advice!
What about replacing the axle? I could get a new Mxus 3k v3 axle for $30.
Is it a lot of effort to replace the axle and are special tools required?

Re: Axle spun inside dropout, Hall cable broken?
Unfortunately I cannot even put it on the axle any more probably because the nut damaged the thread when I removed the nut after that incident.

Re: Axle spun inside dropout, Hall cable broken?
I tried the second set of Hall sensors and this seems to be fine. At least the wheel is spinning when I turn the throttle. The insulation where the cable is coming out of the axle is clearly damaged. However I have another problem now. The thread was damaged and I cannot put the nut back on now (wit...

Axle spun inside dropout, Hall cable broken?
Unfortunately today the axle of my MXUS v3 3T spun inside the dropout. So I guess torque arms are a must at this amount of torque even for an overbuilt steel frame. After that happened, the motor stopped working and told me "Hall error". What do you think most probably happened? A hall sen...

Re: Max safe Flux Weakening
If max. phase amps would be 350A and max field weakening would be 50A, would the max amps going through the phase wires be 400A or still 350A?
If flux weakening if activated, is it also active and drawing power at lower speeds?

Re: Max safe Flux Weakening
I think the maximum value I can set in the Sabvoton software would be 150A.
For the Lipos this would not be a problem.
Isn't there a risk to destabilize the motor's magnets with this amount of flux weakening?

Re: Motor or Controller broken?
Sorry for the confusion. When I first tested to turn the motor diconnected, it was hard to turn. I guess I made a mistake during that and 2 phase cables were touching. When I tried it later, it was not hard to turn any more. After some measurements it came out that the resistance from one phase cabl...

Re: Motor or Controller broken?
I mentioned earlier that the motor is also hard to turn when disconnected. This is not the case. Probably there were two phase cables touching.
It turned out that it was the yellow phase wire which is shorted to 0V via the controller.
Looks like a blown FET.

Re: Lower no-load speed with sine wave controller?
Thanks a lot for the reply!
So the Sabvoton probably uses a simpler technique.
Are there any controllers that use a more sophisticated technique? (Adaptto?)
Which of them use space vector modulation?

It is fine with a resistance around 450 Ohm in series. One sensor reads around 545 and the other around 575 Ohms at about 25 degrees Celsius. I now switched to the second set of halls and temp sensor of the MXUS. This one shows more stable values when the motor is turning. It is always around 3-4 de...

Unfortunately that is not fast enough ;-) By the way, it is a 17'' mc rim. There is no Cycle Analyst connected.

Lower no-load speed with sine wave controller?
Could it be that I cannot get as much rpm (no-load) with a sinewave contoller (flux weak. disabled) than I could get with a square wave?
I use a MXUS 3k v3 3T with a Sabvoton SVMC72150 and cannot get more than 588rpm @ 54V.
Kv of the 3T is 11.9, so rpm should be around 640.
