MMM doensn't work wit DSX3S and the newest beta firmware.
Car will not move or suddenly it fly crazy and stopped.
I had to downgrade to 1.21 for proper working.

Here's a firmware update that I'd like to see for the Mamba and Sidewinder series.

When Torque Control is enabled via Castle Link Software can you make the following changes:

A) "Punch Control" is locked at 100%
AND
B) Field Link could use the Punch Control adjustment to adjust the Torque Control?

OR...

C) Add a flag in Castle Link to switch between Punch Control and Torque Control on the Field Link.

Thanks,


Chris

Same problem for me, when I activate the torque control, the punch control is locked at 0% (full power).

Wouldn't you want to use one or the other? I guess I see them as different ways to accomplish similar functions. My understanding is that punch control limits how fast the controller can ramp up the motor power and torque control limits how much power the motor can produce.

MMM XL suggestion - I'd like a mode or a way to reset the logging memory when the ESC is armed. Perhaps an ad-hoc mode i.e. hold reverse on plug-in.

And / Or perhaps there could be an ESC mode when the ESC memory is cleared every time the ESC is armed.

I'm never going to have my PC with me at the start and end of every run.

This is something that has been discussed but probably won't be included with the initial release, but could be easily be added with a firmware update. It is already a feature on the ICE controllers, so the software is capable of doing it, we would just need to figure out what throttle sequence would clear the data.

Turning it on at full reverse is one option, but if someone has their throttle signal reversed it could get confusing if they're doing throttle calibration; the chiming the controller makes when it's clearing the data could be confused with the full throttle calibration chimes. But I think this would be a very rare occurrence and easily troubleshot.

This may be something that Richard has already added, I'll double check at the tech support/engineering meeting on Thursday. Thanks!

When we getting logging in the other controllers, i.e. MMP or MM? Or is that even possible without hardware updates?

Not possible with the current hardware. You need the HE sensor, some memory, and extra code to utilize both.

Just an idea for "non Castle cans"

Would it be possible to allow more than 20 degree of timing on Sensorless Motors ?

like up to 25 degrees ?

Sorry, no... Sensorless is limited to about 20 degrees of maximum timing. Nothing we can do about that.

thx

was just an idea

Patrick the switch on the MMM kills the power to the microprocessor or only puts it on stand by ??

It takes down all the power supplies (including the microprocessor power supply.)

However, there are still some parts that draw a small amount of power when the switch is off -- so you can't just turn it off and leave it connected for days. It will eventually flatten your batteries.

I am running the Conversion in my Baja 5sc and I can't seem to keep the truck under control. I tried the punch control but that just feel's to me like throttle expo. It works fine but it seems like as soon as you hit half throttle the truck takes off into full wheel spin. I have had the rear tires come off the rims twice now. I am going to try torque limit next but I am not sure what setting to try first. Any suggestions would be great.

You will like the torque limiter -- it does exactly that -- limits torque.

Try starting at "4.0" and if too much torque, dial it down. If not enough torque, dial it up.
