Default Admiral A4 install.

06 club car precedent. 48 volt. Alltrax 500 amp controller. HD solenoid. 2g wire set.

I just installed the new motor. Admiral A4.
I loaded the torque map from scotty. Took it out for a test run and it tops out at 16 to 18 mph. So I loaded the speed map and it tops our at the same. I'm on stock 18 inch tires. My stock motor would do 22.
Here are the settings. What am I missing?
I was expecting 23 to 25.
Hopefully you can zoom in and see them.

That is a "High" torque motor, not a speed motor like the Admiral A2. That motor is larger and designed to take high loads and deliver power, not speed. The speed map will only allow it to accelerate a little faster and perform a little differently. It will not make it a speed motor by any means. The rotating assembly is just not designed for that type of RPM's....

Return and get the A2 unless you need to have the torque.

Gotcha. The info on the website shoes the same speed and more torque than the A2. I really hope I just have something wrong. I don't want to have to take this apart again.

Just for grins I would try setting the speed sensor to 8 pole. You never know. Also turn your throttle rate up to about 70%, it will get you up to speed faster.

I have had two A4's and never ever got that speed, but hope you will. I have pulled the gates off Hades cell and drug them back with it. With an A2 I have exceeded those speeds. I now prefer the FSIP motors that came out a year or two ago for sepex carts.

I don't think scotty is set up to make deals. 40% charge for restocking installed parts. plus shipping. probably would get more on ebay.

I changed from 4 pole to 8 pole. No change. I hooked it up to monitor it. 4400 rpm is all I'm getting. Seems like not high enough.

18 is all I'm getting no matter what the setting. I'm pretty underwhelmed.
