The lag time increase sounds a lot like how punch control works, except instead of integrating throttle input, they are making it a function of sensed rpm. Interesting.

Yes, but Punch Control simply works off a timer. Even the highest Punch Control setting still allows full throttle AND full Amp Draw.

The Torque Control Setting will influence Total Amp Draw and Acceleration all the way up to Top Speed.

Actually, I'm sure it's going to affect Top Speed since that is a result of total amp draw.

This really is a new twist to variable frequency FET switching.

Rather ground breaking if you ask me.

Way to Go Castle!

Well, torque control doesn't affect top speed at all. Unless you set the torque limit so low that the motor can't generate enough torque to get to top speed... But you would have to set a REALLY low torque setting for that to happen.

Try it -- you'll see. It's very effective at limiting torque, but doesn't limit top speed (at reasonable settings...)
