FYI anyone have any thoughts on the pumps from the following supplier, they also have a 55mm and 80mm setup. Not so sure about the impellers. I am just hoping there are options to get metal impellers...

Unlikely to be the throttle, can check by putting a multi meter on the signal wire and ground for the throttle you should have a voltage that changes from about 1-4V over its full travel. If its a smooth change from 0-100%, not the throttle. Most likely issue is just a cheaper controller and...

Kelly controllers KLS range would be good assuming they can match the high E-rpm of the motors if you want them quiet. Otherwise the KHB range would be better for price, will have a loud whine to the motor usually. Seriously tho, that price is frocked. Try...

Best thing I can suggest is find a car wreckers and get yourself some of the aluminium space saver wheels from a Mercedes or some European hot hatch car. 16-18" are available in about 3" wide or less. Most single side swing arm setups for motorbikes are even bigger then that at 5". I am also...

Well hopefully you do get it sorted with just wiring issue as been the problem. It kinda does sound like that if you are having issues even when coasting down a hill etc. Yeah with the controllers it would be nice if they would hold a history of faults so you could actually track what was...

Rayhaque, You may want to post more details as to where you are. Might help if someone local can come have a look, another set of eyes always sees something different. Saying that I have been playing with GM controllers to, from VEC200 all the way to VEC700 to test them out. And long story...

Should be as simple as open up the controller fine the 2 phase wires that go thru the hall sensors to read the current big square things, prob blue. Cut the wires before the sensors, grab 2x 8awg wires and solder them to the original single 8awg wire, feed one thru the sensor and then use the...

Its not that bad to get things done in Australia, just got to read all the paper work and find a really cluey engineer. I got a electric hayabusa passed by the Queensland transport group on the first go. Just sounds like your engineer let you down, 4 point harnesses are not deemed road usable...

Yay the controller is progressing :) Chris I am very happy you understand all this. Hopefully soon you will be able to get it all running and tested :) Derek

well documented in regards to the adaptto is only for fairly standard hub motors. Go for anything high speed like a mid drive etc or something abit different and its alot harder to setup and get right. Adaptto is going to have a bit of competition with recent controllers coming out with...

more as a link for a supplier for usable parts in the project he is doing. 500rpm is probably more the at the wheel speed so there could easily be many stages of reduction or even a single large stage using 219 chain as a example would be very easy. Probably one of the easiest in this power...

probably something like this http://www.samagaga.com/Default.aspx

do which ever is easier for you to disconnect and then reconnect :) I did halls because i always remove and solder the connections so i can just twist them for testing then solder later. Its just a bit odd that the controllers don't have proper color coding with the motors they sell. Good...

Sounds normal to me :) yes try changing the yellow and green hall wire connections first. If that fails try the other 4 hall combinations. 1 should work perfect but may go in the wrong direction tho.

to be honest i have had a few of these motors and the actual wiring between phases and halls does not match on most of them. So please do go through and check the different hall connections, pretty sure i had to swap green and yellow on about 2 motors out of 4. Also in regards to turning the...
