Ham said:OK so who here has tried the astro 3220 with this set up? I have one and am considering getting the barebones gearbox but wondering what mods will need to be done to allow it fit and function?
Ham said:Simply because I have a 3220 already and the gearbox for this is a good price and the motors are a pretty close match in kv and both 80mm
Ham said:oooh I have a spare hv160 here too...that could be fun
Ham said:I'm currently using the 3220 with a castle hv120 through a ca3...tangent kit and its a blast
Ham said:This entire kit is very appealing. I'd love to see a side by side of this vs tangent
Ham said:great info, thanks
Ham said:Yes Tangent is expensive for sure but if it's quicker off the mark then it is worth it A comparison vid would be great
I don't want fast, or at least don't care what top speed is.n2mb said:If you want fast, get the CYC with the BAC 2000 controller. Big power

But I still need as much torque / power at low rpm (amps) as possible.
So the BAC 2000 still gives a huge advantage there, right?
What about compared to Nuc 24 ?
Precise control, over-temp limiting of current both also very important

I would assume huge torque, given that the BAC 2000 supports very high phase amps. I'm not going to try it, since my frame can't take it. It's already bending and creaking with the stock controller at 65A.

flat tire said:Sadly a RC controller is still the most reliable fastest response controller available for this drive. It is more reliable than the mechanical hardware. My RC esc has uncontrolled phase current, and the latest hardened 219H 11T sprocket deforms and wears extremely quickly even though the controller engages very smoothly. The bolts holding the big 219H sprocket to the chainring also tend to break the heads off after a few hundred miles.

If you want fast, get the CYC with the BAC 2000 controller. Big power. But, you have to figure out where to mount the controller..

I am actually at a stage where I have as much fun if not more fun on the levo hard tail I get use every now and then so not really after big power per se...nice to have for sure though and if the build is cheaper than a levo then why not
Trying to find out more info on the gen 2 here and how it works with pas i.e. how smooth it is and different settings etc?
