time to stop f*king around

It reminds me of the younger Esk8 me I wanted to be. @zZoKo if you were stateside, I’d send escs and batteries.

Alright guys! The delays have begun… the over 20 group gets it after march 8th. Otherwise, the not in two days group will take the win

Taking bets for it being finished in 2030, send me a pm if interested. Highest bet is a shitty aliexpress bearing !!

@longhairedboy what’s the spread on this?

My lingyi esc has a phenomenal feature that prevents it from going too fast.

Now that I think about it maybe the “delay” might actually be a good idea. When I accelerate up a hill at full power and then suddenly let go of the throttle I almost fell off a few times. Is there a way to set it up in a similar way with a vesc? Adjusting the ramp down time is not a good idea because then you also cant break fast when you are prepared for it.

Yes, negative throttle ramping time is what you want my dude

Saw your addition, this is really unnoticeable on braking unless you set it crazy high.

No that’s a bad idea. If you set that to like 5 seconds to get a nice smooth deceleration you cant break faster than that if you want to. The china esc does it better because it gets canceled by pulling the breaks.

I basically want 2 ramp down times. One from throttle to idle and one for actually pulling the breaks.

EDIT: I was wrong the Vesc can also do that and the china esc does not do it better because its not adjustable.

I don’t believe that would affect braking in that manner.

This is why there is positive and negative ramping times.

positive ramping is constant seconds from zero to full throttle (brake or accel).
negative ramping is constant seconds from full throttle (brake or accel) back to zero.

i.e. positive ramping set too high would be a very weak throttle and unresponsive brakes.

Okay thank you I always assumed positive is for accelerating and negative is for breaking :sweat_smile:

So I could set positive ramping so something low (0.4s) so have good breaks and acceleration.
negative ramping to like 3 seconds so the transition from full power to neutral is nice and smooth?
breaking would Interrupt the 3 seconds and go straight to the 0.4s from the positive ramping?

Yes that is exactly what I have experienced in altering those settings, I haven’t gone up to 3 seconds so I’d ease my way up towards that instead of making a big jump. Hope it fixes your ride issues!

I never really messed with the values because its mostly fine and I considered it to be a driver error wehen moving the accelerator back to fast.

see the feature wasnt that bad after all

It’s a great option as long as it stays an option.
