Default Get More Torque out of RXV

Hello,

I'm wondering what you would recommend to get more Torque out of the RXV. I have a 2012 that wouldn't push itself up a ramp from a stop. The ramp was steep (from ground to the bed of a pickup truck). It's not only the EZGO's that have had this issue, We had a G29 Yamaha that struggled as well. Have to give them a running start and a push. Upgrade controller and Motor the only way? What brand do you recommend?

Thanks!

You need a 350amp Curtis controller...

I agree the 350 amp controller would fix your issue completely. Do have a couple questions though. Is cart stock? Stock height tires? How long are your ramps? I have a set of 8' ramps that my RXV climbs right up to my dually bed (which is pretty high in the rear). Mine has the 235 amp controller that has been programmed by Bob Boyce, but it made it up fine in stock configuration when I purchased it in Gulf Shores.

Thanks for the reply! Cart has 3" lift & 20" all terrain tires. Ramps were short. Maybe 4'. I knew it was a really steep climb. Was expecting it to spin its wheels rather than give up lol.

Danaher or curtis controller. 2012s mostly have curtis but early ones where danaher. I have seen this phenomenon on a Danaher cart but I took my cart(curtis) to the same place the incident occured and had no issue.
