Got this weird issue that started today.
After a few minutes of ride when trying to brake, most of the time it’s not working though the acceleration works but has the lack of power, like it does not deliver enough current.
I switched between a working esk8 battery to the one with issue and it’s still happens so probably not the battery.
Got home and the vesc terminal threw a lot of abs_over_current errors becuse it exceeded 130A.
@darkkevind Motor’s max current rating is 75A so I’m good there.
@Jinra i need to recreate the fault, will do once i’ll be home in the meanwhile here are the vesc’s settings -
Hmm, I thought of that after it happened so I skipped the bms for discharge and it didn’t help. Maybe the battery has an internal cutoff feature if overcharged?
New revelations- after I switched to Ackmaniac’s fw and turned off Soft slow max the issue with the braking is gone, however I still loose power on stiff hills due to heat which means it goes above 80 degrees celcius.
My question now - is it normal?
I’m not having this issue on my first build which has a 6s Lipo battery with the same exact motor and gear.
so 80 degrees is when it starts throttling current and you’ll feel it becoming weaker. 100c is when it shuts off. If it shuts off without becoming weaker sounds like something else is wrong.
