The controller was the cheapest part.
I almost dropped dead after my numbers kept going up. I was going for a 900Vdc, 400Arms, but the motor can go up to 700HP at 20000rpm and each lithium cell can put out 750A cont. and 1100A pulses. When all was said and done if I went ahead I could've almost match Traxxas sells number.
