How much voltage drop is to much on a 36v cc? With a passenger going up hil it will drop from say 38v f.c to 34v and slow down and jerk sometimes

6 volts or one battery is the ~norm to point to a problem occurring.

Your brushes are probably getting worn in the motor. They are chattering and skipping under load.

I'd put my money on this answer.

It is a job, but I would recommend this to anyone who upgrades for torque or speed with the original motor of age. Take the time to pull the motor and check the brushes and commutator for wear or destruction.

See my post "How did it ever run?" I still can't believe this motor got me home after this failure!

I will eventually put new motor on there. Thinking bout the beast motor it’s a hunting cart. Will that and controller set to torque does that run down batteries quicker? The main thing drives me crazy is trying to creep the herky jerky is that fixed through controller?

If you have a torque motor and your controller is programmed correctly, it will work just as you desire.
