So something amazing happened.
Look what I found that someone is throwing out...
A sensored Dapu 9 pins 250w 36v motor!! (From googling I think it might be the same OEM as mine)
However. There are a few issues.
I have no idea who is throwing it out yet, so I don't know why they're throwing it...
I'm guessing my next step would be to get another controller, one with no Hall connections. But are they still a thing? PCeBiker did post one, a KT one, so maybe go for that?
It's all very weird, isn't it? Like, the controller very much understands how to send power to the motor. But anymore than walk assist it just never tries. It's honestly being kinda mean to me lol
Mine is on Zero start, but i did also try and push the wheel to see if that helped. Sadly it did not.
I already did make sure to have it learn, in fact tried many times after fiddling with settings. Still only walk assist.
Yeah... I think I goofed. I don't think it'll work with a sensorless...
Yeah i think you're right in it just giving up since there's no Hall data. But as I understood from both the listing and the interwebs is that most, if not all, controllers can handle sensorless motors, no? Since it would be getting data about the current and whatnot even from one with sensors...
I can hear that it's not even sending power to the motor nor any movement when I try with it in the air. But as a matter of facts I actually opened it up last month. Here it is if you're curious:
It was fun to take apart, but I didn't spot any mechanical problems with it. ran fine just fine
I have both newly bought PAS and controller, so I really hope the pinout would be the same. I did try and rewire with breakout cables with my old PAS, but that one is on the right side anyways, so i'm not sure if the controller would ever like it. I think it sends an inverted signal if on the...
Hi! I've been lurking through threads here over the past few months to better understand my DIY Ebike project. As someone who prefers to fix and repurpose rather than dispose of electronics, I may have taken on more than I initially bargained for! I'm hoping to find some knowledgeable...
