11amps.braking is going to be nothing, same with battery max.

Others?

I usually do atleast 14amps for breaking

#4

my hesitation on this is the chinese bms that came with the board. Can it take 14a per vesc?

#5

trying to go under the 40a cont max from the battery pack. 19.25a per vesc sounds reasonable no?

#6

I read “chinese board” and expected some $300 garbage with a vesc 4.12 slapped on.

Pleasantly surprised by your board! :slight_smile:

I only changed the esc and wheels, the battery is the limiting factor.

That’s why i’m questioning the vesc settings.

Very nice looking board :+1:

I think the VESC settings is fine, you could probably set the battery max to 20a and have battery regen at -12

The motor max 45a and motor brake -45a is the same as what I’ve had on my Flipsky 4.2 dual VESC so they should work well :slight_smile:

What wheel pulleys did you use for the drive wheel tho?

I’m using 38T wheel pulley. 15T for the motor.
