Where can I find a beginner’s intro to tuning a Bafang Ultra motor?

Where can I find a beginner’s intro to tuning a Bafang Ultra motor? I have a bike with Bafang Ultra coming on Tuesday and I’d like to learn what I can about tuning. Thanks so much!

I say try it first and see how you like it.

Agreed, may be just fine the way it is.

Everyone's preference will likely be different but here is what @eBikeaholic did:

It seems some of the issues people have with the smoothness can be attributed to the controller's low sampling frequency which can't necessarily be tuned away with programming.

Hi tomdav, thanks, was a very informative video. I’d like to learn a lot more but at least now I don’t know zero about it. I’m not going to tune immediately but I do want to learn something about what the options are and which ones are best for which applications.
