Hi guys, I have a bafang hub motor and controller just like this one:
You can enter the settings and play with current / speed settings which of-course does nothing to really change the top speed. BTW I have the current and speed settings maxed - no change from stock. the limits are built in to the controller.
there are some other settings to change wheel diameter , number of poles in the motor etc etc.
is there anyway to get more top speed with this type of setup with different settings? or would a different unrestricted controller be the only thing that would truly increase the top speed?
If i keep my eye on the wattage use it will peak at 999 watts until i reach 20kmh - then it will start to automatically throttle back wattage as I reach top @25-27kmh. it will maintain about 3-500 watts to maintain that top speed.
If i could unable it to hold that 999 watts on longer without automatically throttling it back then the top speed would no doubt increase - whether that's possible or not with settings is the question.
I have heard changing the wheel diameter can fool the controller into thinking your going slower then you actually are?
I need to cover alot of land on closed wide open gravel roads for work, and more speed would really help.
anyone played around with this stuff much? thanks in advance.
