Okay, your encoder A/B might be switched.
Good to hear it's working otherwise!

Re: Tesla Large Drive Unit Support Thread

You need the sine.bin or sine.hex file (either one works). Not FOC. Not sure about the encoder wiring, I'll let someone with LDU experience chime in. 118v should be enough to really get it going, so be careful. For bench testing it would be safer to get some coolant in the inverter, its thermal mass...

Re: Looking for rear differential with built in electric motor, like Lexus 450h.

Outlander rear motor? ~60kw motor hooked up with ~7.0:1 ratio to diff.
Control via CAN (not sure if anyone has an 'official' vcu for it), or use a Prius inverter.
9300rpm max according to wiki.

Re: Extracting 150kw from a Leaf 24kwh Gen2 Battery - Possible?

Ah ok, so the BMS is in control of how much power is drawn, set to a level that's safe for the battery. So if I did add more modules in parallel to up the power would I have to move to an aftermarket BMS system? No. The BMS will complain about the excessive power draw but it can't do anything about...

interesting, as google claims the M3 RDU can provide less Peak power then the old SDU from model S Yup. But for that race application, where continuous power is more important, the M3 motor was more suitable. The S motor is induction while the M3 is permanent magnet, so the rotor in the S motor hea...

That's actually an interesting feature.

Else, when rapid charging, we're essentially injecting the charging current into our main HV...

Re: Chademo Controller Development

On the 'Chademo VCU' the contactor relay connects the contactors between pin 2 (positive signal from EVSE) to pin 10 (negative signal from EVSE).
The other relay simply powers up the unit when pin 7 is grounded.

Leaf charger has not been hacked as far as I know.
A good charger is one of the Chevy Volt units, they are easily CAN controlled.

CCS is separate from the Leaf charger system since it's just DC straight into the pack. So yes they are compatible, but the Leaf charger can't do anything for you.

Re: Partlist for a Tesla Swap Project

If you only have space for 7 Tesla modules you won't be able to get 700hp. According to your specs for P85D modules, you can get 6.5C for 3 seconds. 7 modules is (5.2kWh * 7) 36.4 kWh. That times 6.5 = 236 kW, no more than 300hp. Yup, you'll need to focus on batteries. What car are you planning to c...
