Re: Project RX-8 w/ GS450h Drivetrain
I think before I made another set up I’d try you current one with an aluminium donut you don’t need the movement the rubber provides

I think if I were doing this swap I’d build a solid aluminium doughnut and include a slip joint between UJs something like

Re: Project RX-8 w/ GS450h Drivetrain
Ok so UJs are not a constant velocity joint and if the gearbox flange and diff flange aren’t square to each other, so that the angle of each uj cancels the other out you can create a vibration, also can’t see your entire prop shaft there but is it correctly phased? the yokes at each end of the prop ...

Re: Hardware throttle limit/eco mode/reverse limit
I have been meaning to do similar but adding a resistor to gnd switched in so throttle pedal become less sensitive in reverse

Re: Inverter Firmware 5.35.R
Does this new version allow can control of one oi board from another? If so can you give an example of what the tx and Rx settings would be? Thanks

Re: Inverter Firmware 5.35.R
Does this firmware allow me the share the analog throttle attached to one oi board to another oi board?
Obviously pre Crc I would just map the throttle pots across can, not sure I understand if the added uptime counter makes this possible or not?

Re: [DRIVING] 1984 Voltswagen Rabbit Prius Gen 3 ZOMBIE
Great work Greg! I don’t generally like taking my bmw modules below 3.4v cell I start getting big deltas under load if I do, so what’s the max battery current you’ve seen pulled? Maybe log idc and udc and go full throttle so we can work out how many kw you’ve managed to extract from the Prius!

Re: [DRIVING] BMW Z3 [FINISHED]
Great work in finding the culprit guys! Interestingly I can get a harsh juddering if one motors inverter restarts due to over current and restarts whilst moving I put this down to a sync error being introduced somehow by restarting in motion, (totally different setup though so unrelated)

Could a non linear throttle ramp could be helpful giving finer control of light throttle

Re: [WIP] BMW Z3 [FINISHED]
Cool, yes make sense I get a similar effect at very low rpm pulling away, if you don’t accelerate through it you can set up an oscillation though the drivetrain

Just set temperature de rating in software as high as possible, the hardware is smart enough to over temperature derate

Re: [WIP] BMW Z3 [FINISHED]
Looks like potnom oscillates at the same time? So software based issue and the inverter is just doing as commanded?

Re: Toyota Prius Gen 2 Inverter Controller
You could just scope the encoder output and count the number of pulses through 1 revolution, not sure what to set resolver pole pairs to when using an encoder.

Re: Toyota Prius Gen 2 Inverter Controller
You may require slightly different gains thanks to less than identical component layout? (Just guessing) I’d verify with a current clamp.
Also worth graphing position
