Has anyone thought to ask Bafang through their public contact forms if they will develop an app to configure Torque support like the big manufacturers? If we all email them they might make the effort to provide this feature. They already have the Bafang Go App, and the interface is there it...

I just flashed 48V firmware onto a 43V motor it worked just riding around on test. I'll have to update later with more results when it gets ridden more.

:oops: :oops: Well silly me. It's because I 'Right-clicked and Save-As' the file instead of clicking ont he file, and selecting 'download' through GITHub. Note the file actually downloads as "CRX10NC4810i142050.6-22-1768-20201109.bin" but it is 122kB, instead of 73kB. All the files open...

[SOLVED] Does anyone else have an issue with the firmware from the GIT HUB? https://github.com/OpenSourceEBike/Bafang_M500_M600/tree/main/Firmwares/Official/Motor/m500 I have tried opening each of the 48V M500 versions and BESST tells me they all have a bad header. [NOT SOLVED] Also I am...

Thanks Mate. Maybe I'll just give it a go. Could be an expensive lesson.

Yeah well I don't have a 48V motor. My first thought was they were the same but if Bafang say they are different they must be different. I'll give it a few days maybe someone here has tried it

Haha.. in an email from Bafang. I haven't seen it written anywhere but then again, there's lots of info about these motors that isn't published anywhere

Apparently the coil winding is different (so say Bafang).. I want to reload 48V firmware onto a 43V motor and then use a 48V battery so the battery level indicator is good. Not just use a 48V battery on a stock 43V motor.

anyone tried loading 48V firmware onto a 43V M600? apparently the coils are wound differently, just curious if anyone had "done it"

I thought Luna's controller was.supposed to be open source but none of the source material had been published.

Perfect. Procedure confirmed!!! Thanks :bigthumb:

Has anyone described the process to actually calibrate the torque sensor (like hang a 1kg mass from the pedal?)

Yeah I think I wrote about it a while ago. Trot 27 is Overcurrent in the controller. A reflash of firmware fixed it for a couple of months and it came back. Tried to repeat but the controller failed to respond at all. Replace controller. Bafang had no suggestions other than to send a new...

I actually agree with you.. BUT the firmware is not the same. The fact is that level 1 on the M600 gives you more "oomph" than level 1 on the M500 does. Sure if you had controlled conditions and pulled the same electrical power from each motor their efficiencies would be quite similar.. this...

No doubt about it, the m600 feels stronger. Is it awesome? Absolutely yes. Do you really need it? Not really.. I can ride up pretty much anything with the m500 and have plenty of fun and speed. I prefer the M500. But others who like to "level 5" all the way, might prefer the M600. It's really...
