but I guess this is not an FOC vs BLDC topic, which has been done before and has very similar opinions stated.
but while i’m on it:
I think bldc vs foc is not the issue, you can make foc much more aggressive by adjusting the PID gains.

IDK if that guy on the vesc forum knows what he’s talking about, but if what he’s saying is true… it could just be that foc mode isn’t punchy as it could be. and that’s the difference. it’s the one that needs tuning?
also… @Tony_Stark seems to have sensed this pid tuning need. so maybe that is it?
