Re: pds torque problem
The PDS is a sepex (seperately excited) motor ... the most damaging thing you can do to a sepex motor aside from over revving and granading them, is to stall them; such as holding the gas down while the cart is up against a curb... this will cause excessive heat in the motor which will eventually kill the motor and possibly the controller.
My first thought is can you put a 1 inch pipe in front of the 2 inch curb? Can you get a run at the curb to help bounce or roll over it? My second thought is get a bigger controller pkg including heavy cables to deliver the amperage needed to jump a curb. Third have you read and followed the proper battery break-in procedures? New batteries are only 75% of potential until properly ....broken in. Hope this begins to help |

Re: pds torque problem
I have another project cart that I am planing on doing next with very extensive upgrades but this will just be a golf course cart so I do not want to spend a lot of money and put high end upgrades I'm just frustrated that a stock cart is not performing like a stock cart should.

Re: pds torque problem
Check battery condition... then cables and connections. Compromised cables can hurt performance in torque situations.... also the PDS cart may be fitted with a speed chip which would minimize torque.

Re: pds torque problem
is that the 4 hole port on the stock controller? cause it does have that freedom chip.

Re: pds torque problem
Yes, that will cause the torque to be minimized and the speed maximized... get the yellow moderate hill chip for a good compromise.
