Overmodulation?

In the onewheel vesc world people are starting to mess with overmodulation. Im still trying to educate myself on it, but it appears to result in a higher top speed and lower duty cycle.

Initial findings are running 1.15 overmodulation gets you a 7% increase in dutycycle headroom.
Eg 95%dc now becomes 88% dc

6.06 is out, anyone tried it on esk8 motors? The onewheel guys said it is more efficient compared to field weakening.

Nice! What controller do you have?
