- | In practice these characteristics widely depend on the controller settings. At low RPMs, the secondary current (i.e. the current between controller and motor) becomes very high even at low primary (traction battery) current. If the controller settings are not carefully optimized, the controller tends to either go into "current limiting" mode and reduce the power, or to hysterically switch off completely. | + | In practice these characteristics widely depend on the controller settings. Please see chapter [[astra_conv:conversion:controller_box:controller_box#motor_controller_setup|"motor controller setup"]]! |
- | Driving experience is therefore a bit different from what the diagram would suggest - the motor needs quite some RPMs to make you happy. The power is however sufficient for accelating with ease and without feeling the constant need to "apologize" to the drivers behind you. | ||
