Wow, I didn’t expect them to be exposed like that. How does the magnet attach?

Just a heads up, maximum RPM for the AS5047 seem to be around 28000.
If its 100V and 265kv you’re aiming for, you’re almost there. But maybe the encoder is only useful during the low end? I always go sensorless :man_shrugging:

How did you attach them to the board? they look awsome!

If you’re at 0, why not try softer bushings so you still get a bit of lean? It’ll help you turn while still keeping the rear locked out
