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

Re: [WIP] BMW Z3

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

Re: Toyota Prius Gen 2 Inverter Controller

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

Re: [WIP] BMW Z3

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

Re: [DRIVING] Project RX8 , Prius gen2, Lexus transaxle to rwd

So good news bad news….. Good news is I can no longer hear how many teeth the diff crown wheel has under regen. Bad news is the diff can’t have been the only thing making a noise so I suspect the gearbox isn’t the healthiest. So that leads to the question find another gearbox or ditch the whole moto...

Re: Toyota Prius Gen 2 Inverter Controller

MIVB and MIWB can just remain unconnected at the inverter end. Not an expert with some firmware as I’ve never used it, I thought the v/hz based firmware doesn’t require current sensor feedback? Using an encoder gives actual rotor speed feedback probably means slip angle can me monitored again no exp...

Fair enough, I was just reading up on Toyota sync serial comms and thought of you, reason being I have an rx450h inverter here that I’d like to get working via serial. Not sure how feasible finding the ham commands without a working car to log is going to be, if I do get it working, (I have a spare ...

Re: GS450h without external oil pump

I was wondering about an accumulator, but without knowing the flow rate of the valve body it would be hard to appropriately size, and yes you’d have 1 shot at pulling away and need to continue moving to refill it, stop start traffic would be impossible. I think the only solution is keep the pump or ...
