Is There cheap BLDC Controler?

Hi I try to use remy motor It's amazing one...

Motor is just 5000$ but power is 200hp and maximum 450 hp...

Wow... It's amazing but problem is controller..

VAXO recommend me reinhart controller It's too expensive about 10000$

and below motor's power (motor is 600amp and 700vdc max but controller is just 350amp peak..)

Can you recommend me better one or cheapper one?

I know It's not that expensive price but... I try to find optimized one...

And what is used at F-150 truck??

Thank you..

the money is in the Peak Voltage Rating and Power Stage.700 VDC is normal to keep the current below 330 AMP.
you looking at 335.6 KW @ 400HP
245KW @700 Volts 350 amps
so you need to define you parameters.

Simenond is about $4,000 for 100KW

What is this Simenond controller? Where do I find it?

That Scott drive think is 150kw peak, and if you want to go cheaper, there are the Kelly controllers.

Good luck. But the nice thing is with electronics the price will come down!

That was in 1998! 14 years ago!

There just isn't a lot automotive capable BLDC and AC out there, right now DC reigns supreme for the HP&TQ/$ ratio...maybe one day BLDC will be cheap enough...

yes, it was the prototype I built my Controller from, with some added info from the Allison EP50.
then I added the 56F803 as the core of the controller using their Application note.
AS I SAID if you can find surplus one.
