I have today developed this issue on my Baserunner which has been in service without hiccup for about 4 years. This morning I was out in the rain and lost power at the bottom of a fast hill. Back at home, the controller spins the motor when the TTL (trrs) cable is plugged into the computer; when...

I noticed the CAv3 has regen upgrades lately. I have a 3kw moped (NIU NGK) which has partial regen. I am trying to research how best to get full variable regen. Would the CA3 be able to be used for this? In his late video on regen at the bike show, Justin name checks Kelly controllers. I was...

I just nipped out back to check - yep, this is a 200mm disc I ran on a MAC a few years back. The Kona Stab frame had no disc mount bracket so I added one with aluminium welding. Would recommend a 203mm rotor, but 200mm was what I had to hand and it did run well :) Great to hear the motor is...

[Neo: hmm, Upgrades...] 8) My Azub Six SWB ‘bent commuter ride gets treated to an upgrade :bolt: I came across this bike on Ebay a few years back. I had wanted to try a 'bent for years and this one was barely used- seller was asking basically double the price of the Rohloff alone for the...

Having trouble installing this - I'm on Windows 7 I followed the instructions for installation in first post as far as: "d) you will see two icons: the XPD program and the XPD icon." I don't see any icon - not either one. I do have the 10 folders: 0.1.0 0.2.0 0.2.1 ... 0.4.1 support ??? :)...

Hi Storapa, Lovely build you have here - please tell us you finished it?? I know it’s always the last ‘small’ jobs in a project which can take the most time...

I play guitar. Parents sent me to piano lessons when I was a boy - I gave it up as soon as I could but not before I got a good understanding of music theory, enough to teach myself guitar. I'm 44 now. Just last year I finally could play a country rock riff on the telecaster which I been...

I nearly bought an a2b off eBay last month as they were at a greatly reduced price for some reason. Interesting to see the battery, 60 cells; I run 80 cells on my raleigh twenty, more than enough for my 36 mile commute. Looking forward to seeing where you go with this.

Hi folks, I found time over Christmas to do a layout on kicad for the power board. Tesseract should be happy - I got the shcottky and the TVS diodes all on the board. TVS's sit above the surface mount FETs. I finally gave it a proper run at the weekend and it seems to be working as it should...

I could use my Cycle Analyst, sure. Set max speed/current. You're still hanging onto the throttle all the time tho' - a pushbutton solution would be best IMO. Some thoughts about coding (thinking aloud): Unless push button pressed, output follows input. When push button pressed: 1. Log speed...

On the back of this torque vs speed control, what do folks think about cruise control? For high power trail bike, obviously not required, but for a low power commuter I think I'll miss the ability to lock in at a certain speed at the push of a button and sit there till the next red light. For a...

How is this coming along? I wonder if you found the Mac mid drive conversion thread on here? The Mac is a robust motor, electrically difficult to drive - lebowski has managed to run it with his controller. Could be a solution for you?

This interests me greatly - that it's possible to take hands off the steering. I've had a SWB Azub 6 for over a year now which is the first and only recumbent I've ever riden. In no way is it possible to let go of the bars for any length of time as balance fails very quickly. So you are...

Been reading up on this topic today, came across this instructable to convert a PC smps to make an adjustable supply: http://www.instructables.com/id/Adjustable-High-Current-Lab-SMPS-Out-of-a-Standard/?ALLSTEPS Apparently this hack is very common as they have a dedicated page listing over 70...

I've been working on this circuit for this past year or so - been through a couple of revisions and learned quite a bit along the way. A couple of suggestions for improvements of this unit: 1) From the schematics on instructables there doesn't seem to be any gate resistors for the FETS. Riba...
