The shocks, struts and poly bushings were sold, used a bit of the loose wire. I started to recycle a few of the steel bits for my elec burnout go kart (clearance grinding on something listed as a motor mount, a few extra holes in some angle steel, etc.) but it's still usable or easily replaceable. Everything else is still here, but a couple folks have asked about the motor/controller combo. Pick up would be great, but I have a trailer so could deliver or meet part way also. Shoot me a message.Still have this stuff? I have a 72v dc motor, a Warp9 motor and Evnetics Soliton JR setup if interested in trade. Could pu I'm in LA area.
Hmm, bummer but not a shock. Thanks for that info. Nope, no software. Hopefully the folks that originally bought the kit still have it and will answer my messages.Its not that no one wants one. The problem is if it has all the accompanying software for the controller. Without the matching software the controller is pretty much a brick. I have one of these in my 914 I purchased early in the year and I did get the original software but the problem is that the software is matched to the controller. It's part of the kit. Do you have the software for the controller? It would be a great kit to put into a Bug.
Nope, they don't have software. I'm charging batteries and looking at the wiring diagrams in hopes of bench-testing it.Let me know if you get that software for the controller.
Wasn't aware that was a practical possibility. I presumed they wouldn't speak whatever encoding the motor uses. The AC stuff is pretty mysterious to me still. I happened on this kit while looking for bigger/badder DC parts for my little go kart project, intending to learn my way up the ladder. If you want any of it, send me an offer. It's not precious to me, just a possible future project I don't have time for either.I was thinking of using one of my Curtis AC controllers attached to this to see what it can do with more amperage and voltage.
There is also an DIY controller from Johannes Hubner that should do the trick talking to the motor. You would need to build out the power section but I do believe it will work with most encoders that motors have. Im going to try a Curtis AC motor controller with my industrial AC induction motor I have. I do know the Curtis controllers work with many industrial AC induction motors and the AC24 is such a beast. There are options available to allow the continued use of these old systems that no longer have the original software to work with the DMOC controllers.Wasn't aware that was a practical possibility.

Yep, got to that conclusion eventually and thought about using the DMOC power stage for a while. The EVBMW mod board for the Prius inverter uses the openinverter software and the Prius power stage. Would be overkill for this, but are bulletproof and proven, plus all the other benefits like DC/DC and charging. Sadly I sold my only fully working board and haven't fixed one of the others due to time, but Damien is testing another improved design currently anyway. Using the DMOC power stage has probably been done but there's no drop-in openinverter board.There is also an DIY controller from Johannes Hubner
