Really appreciate the insight, could I trouble you for a link to a post or video on how to set modes up properly? I’d rather not have my d100s fried.

You can go into “profiles” in VESC tool and set up top speed limiting which I believe it does via eRPM limiting.

I know how to do it that way but he said specifically to not do that with my d100s or it’ll burn up.
I don’t know how yours truly works exactly, I used metr personally because I am android.
In metr there’s an option to add custom settings down at the bottom, try to find something like that
Then you need to add these two settings
Set “maximum duty cycle” between 0 and 95% to what you want your top speed to be. Change “duty cycle current limit start” to be 10% less than max duty cycle.
This is the safest bet if you want to set top speed without risking the hardware, however it’s not perfect as your top speed will get lower as you deplete the battery.
Also another d100s quirk is that they don’t really like if you spin the motors unloaded with the wheels in the air, it’s not like it’s gonna guarantee that they blow up but there’s a non zero chance so don’t do it if you don’t have to. This one actually applies to some other high voltage vescs as well
