i have been reading these forums and have been amazed at the quality and functionality of the bikes built, unfortunately the same could not be said for my bike. i have powered a bike using a small scorpion outrunner (2000w)
here is a picture of my bike (sorry if it's massive)
the problem is that i am getting through speed controllers at an expensive rate, please help me, i can't work out whats wrong as i am not exceeding the maximum voltage or amp rating of the controllers.
i have had 3 speed controllers fail me lasting a maximum of ~10 miles and a minimum of ~1.5 miles. They have all failed at low speeds and drawing few amps as i have a 30 amp circuit breaker, on my most recent failure (today) i was accelerating down hill using about 300 watts when my ESC failed.
here are a list of the esc's killed so far
mystery 100amp 22.2v
