Ok a lot was happening from last update
Do some tidings in case:
Power cables:
But not everything went smooth, after closing case, finish cabling routing this happen…
Saying mad is was not enough to describe my feelings… it happens after all tests when everything was ready as it was 4AM at night when I was happy to making road tests next day… terrible time.
Was searching for issues from my side, VESC configuration, connections etc. but find none… it just burned. After contacting with Flipsky (thanks guys) and describing problem with all my “documentation” from here I was able to get replacement. So I advise all of you to do such documentation when playing with electronics, because root cause of such problems can be on each side with similar probability.
During that time got many new ideas so I end up with different box - easier access, a little bit more space and IPX resistant
Thanks god Flipsky made it before koronavirus and get me replacement quite fast:
After “few” (counting in houndreds ) approaches got a final case:
ESC this time is glued on heatsink edges to lid, being in same time connected with use of CPU thermal paste to lid to increase heat distribution. Also added some foam to cover cables from nuts and ESC from cables.
One issue still remains for future as yesterday find out that receiver is losing signal due to polarisation (case is acting as Faraday cup so signal is weaken). This still needs to be addressed, but already got some ideas
Last day I have also some spare night time to add lightening. Not final solution, as I want to supply them from main battery, but need to buy regulator from 48V to 8V to do so. In the mean time I have temporary used one of tool boxes I have ordered at beginning. Lights are double 260 lumens / 46Lux LED lights from bike. @Lee_Wright you might be interested into them basing on your last approach to Cyclop Beast
Already done not much as 100km on it I’m in love. One thing does not sleep we well, as I’m thinking that 4kW on that engines Flipsky 6384 is only marketing, was able to stop them from moving in small dirt on full throttle at 65A - not sure if this is the case or is it my configuration.
BTW why engines that are able to do 100A continues are discovered as 65A, is it just VESC behaviour to be 100% sure that nothing will be wrong?
