Hi Jim
How many Amp can delivred our controler?
I use Headway 38120S 10Ah on my suzuki DRZ coupled at a 700A controller. In my 26S 3P configuration the voltage drop at 2.3v per cell at 600A (20C) in the first second (1-2 sec.) of acceleration. After my small motor isn't capable to pull higher Amps.
If you use 1000A controller the 2P configuration will be not enought!!!
Depending of your gear ratio you probably need more Amps (torque) and less voltage (speed).
So, for a bit more money, a configuration 30S 4P could give to your 13" motor a good power for 15s. But you will be over the battery spec!!
Use headway at 30C discharge probably reduce a lot his life....
But it's probably a good test for not to much money....
Good luck!
