Read this on how to configure your vesc settings.
Duty cycle (Arbeitszyklus) and the four different Amp settings are important to understand.
Quick example: Battery voltage 50V, Motor max 80A, Battery max 40A
At 50% Duty cycle you can push 80A towards the motor while only 40A flow from the battery towards the VESC. Reason: At 50% duty cycle the motor is operated at 25V (50% of 50V) and 80A = 2000W output The battery delivers 50V at 40A =2000W
The VESC scales down the voltage and ups the Amps. 2000W Motor side = 2000W Battery Side
Once you…
Regen is usually motor amps -10 to be safe, and battery regen amps can be 2x fast charge rate for cells divided by the number of vescs since you dont charge for long periods at a time.
