so yes rc controllers will cut out if the load is to great. Source- i’ve had this happen on a rc
try changing that start power setting to high
second remove the motor from the drive and see if it spins

yepp its spinning well without load
i maybe try to adjust the timing on the escs but as this setup is wrong in general in terms of motor, gearing and or battery and esc combbo i think my colleague just needs to decide if he changes the battery/escs or the motor/gearing (cheaper imo :-))
thx to you and all the other for looking into this and investing time
!!! Watt = Volt * Ampère (P = U * I) !!! dont ignore tht

Ignore whatt?
Anyways maybe its better to move this to its own discussion?

This isn’t necessarily true unless you’re at top speed. There are a lot of other variables, like duty cycle, that affect things a lot as well.

Reachers from Radium or SKP are pretty much the standard for high end motors nowadays. They can handle a lot more amps+abuse than Flipsky

Best motors - probably Reacher / SKP / Radium.
Good / very good motors: Flipsky, Maytech, Torqueboards.

premium: reacher (radium or skp are all same)
mid: flipsky (but wait for the v2, or i think apex already has the v2 version)
dirt cheap: saite

Same lineup for me, despite not having owned reachers I think they are probably higher quality than fs from what I’ve seen.
The price premium is definitely not worth it for most riders, imo.

Radium Reachers for sure.
If you want to support the brand that put in a bucket load of time and money to develop those motors with Reacher then please buy from Radium🙏
We get no kickback from Reacher or even credit from anyone.
We don’t take a wage from Radium and all proceeds go back into developing new eskate tech🤘

Ive been using and heavily abusing radium motors. Only recently have I killed the senors on the left motor and yet it keeps ticking along strong with a little tuning magic.
The way I see it, its better to buy the best components. Cheap out and you’ll more than likely deal with more headaches than anything else.

Agreed. I used to go through maytech motors almost as often as belts!
I’ve made a lot of updates to improve sensor reliability/longevity since the version you own too.

Despite the low price, rather have Saite than Flipsky.

I reckon more peeps would own saite if they were easier to buy. Needing to go through the alibaba process is probably a bit of a turn off for most
