Default Only Getting to 18 MPH with Navitas TSX600 Upgrade?

Hello All,

Recently installed Navitas TSX600 on my 2009 YDRE and only getting a max of 18mph. Regen and acceleration are set to stock settings. To the best of my knowledge everything is setup correctly in the app and I increased the max speed to 35 mph (not expecting to get 35 mph but wanted to max out to see how fast it would go).

I also upgraded to 400 Amp solenoid and changed all battery, motor, controller and solenoid leads to 2AWG.

I was definitely hoping to get more speed for $1000 controller upgrade. Please let me know if I am doing something wrong or if this is the max I will get until I upgrade the motor.

Stock motor? It won't last long with that controller...

Yeah. I know the wife wasn't keen on me dropping another $800 on motor. Figure if I burn it up then she has to let me... lol

At this rate, the motor will last another couple of years unless I figure out why I am only getting 18 mph max.

That's all you will get with stock gears and stock small wheels.

Its lifted with 22” tires. Feel like I‘ve read some of these threads were people are getting 25mph+ on stock motor with Navitas 600 (Obviously stock motor isn’t going to last long at that rate).

It should be able to get over 20mph with 22 inch tires. I don't know Navitas but with Alltrax, I can tune things a lot. Field weakening is required to get higher speeds. The Alltrax uses Field Maps to do this.

I've got ~ 22 mph with a 300a Alltrax and 20" tires, so you should get definitely more than 18. Call Navitas!

Did you contact Navitas? or figure anything out on this? I am looking at the Navitas 600 for my 2018.

Hmm. I also have the Navitas 600 Amp controller. on my 2022 Yahama Drive 2 PTV with Powertech AC. How can I prevent it from burning out the motor?

What replacement motor do you get that wont burn out?
