Alright went to I2S today, the track setup was very fast. Few turns and then big straights. I suppose it’s more similar to what will be at AVS which is a fast track.

So, I redid detection after turning off phase filters and was running 60A motors front 90A rear. Well it didn’t take long to hit some faults and then hit another fault and almost ate shit. Took a big wobble but luckily was able to ride it out. Of course once again front is faulting. And this is the scarier one that happens down the line while gunning it out of a corner, at roughly 70k rpm is when it faults, again.

That scared me enough to lower it back down to 50A and take it easy the rest of the day. Just put in the reps on the track to get used to racing.

Other things I was trying was softer bushings in the rear and looser front trucks. I definitely liked this more still need build up ankle strength for it though. But made it very fluid to flow from corner to corner. Also, ran the BRP wheels for the first time and boy do they slide, was drifting around the track. Very different from the RS tires which feels more locked in. Got to meet @MarioChacon who was slaying it out there with the super spine. He was also talking to me about the predictability of the BRPs slides and I can kind of see that. But I need more time on them and want to see them when pushing harder.

The scare made me pretty much immediately go buy a new controller, I don’t know what’s up but would like to swap it out. Since the rear is running flawless my gut just says it’s the controller. I know I could swap sides but I really don’t want to be bothered with that.

Something I can try before that is to run unrestricted FW and just bump it to 300A and see how that goes. I’m think backup my settings, change FW, restore settings, bump absolute max. :grimacing: We’ll see.

Guess, check, risk life, rinse, and repeat.
