    Falco 7.7, Catrike Villager, Hilly Terrain

    Harry Did get one ride in since the upgrade. Suspiciously the original firmware seemed generic but the new one seems specific to my 750W motor. Initial observations are very good............... clunking subdued to gone. The console now shows turbo mode (Have not tried it). Only negative is...

    Harry, When riding you experience anything like a "clunk" and a small shudder through the trike frame every 4-5 seconds, when pedaling? The axle is tight, the spokes fine, the torque arms installed, and the axle nuts torqued correctly

    Harry, I received torque arms from Rakesh. It took ages to get a working configuration but it made a huge difference. Uphill motor engages smoothly, but still drops out. Rakesh suggested setting torque and speed sensor option and drop out at 1 or 2. Looking forward to testing tomorrow. I...

    Falco 7.7, Catrike Villager, Hilly Terrain

    I recently 'electrified' my trike with the Falco 7.7 eSytem. It has been a struggle to setup despite help from Rakesh. In particular, when going uphill the motor will cycle in, with a loud clunk then out again several times, while I am pedaling hard, at a good cadence. Sometimes it seems to...
