Navitas 600A Controller on 2018 RXV 48v - What should I expect?

BTW, Bob doesn't just increase top speed, he also fine tunes the controller for acceleration, regen braking and one pedal drivability as you may desire.

Bob is awesome!

As too your buddy with the 32mph TXT. What happens on an incline? In my experience the RXV, tweaked or not, will pull away from a DC cart on any sort of incline and the steeper it is the the faster the RXV pulls away. AC Yamaha does this also.

Oh no dowt!! On a hill he’s toast. We street race down a long strip of road in our community where there are no homes on ‘occasion’. And I misspoke he just sent me his stats. 37.8 mph on 23” tires, alltrax 400a controller and the admiral speed motor (that he blew up!) lol

Anyhow, I’ve got all the faith in Bob...thanks fellas for all the info!!

All of this speed talk has me anxious to try out my Bandolero project car. I have to finish it first. I'm putting the 2Five axle under it with 23" tires and a reprogrammed 350 Amp Curtis controller driving an 8.8 HP 2+2 Shuttle AC motor. Twice the continuous HP rating of an RXV motor. Powered by a 200 A/H 67 Volt lithium pack. It should be able to exceed 45 MPH with that combination...

The cost of that axle and all other parts is pretty steep...looks like it's time to go wreck diving!

I was not suggesting that you buy the axle. I posted the axle diagram so that you can locate the part ID numbers for the 14.76:1 gears in the gear set, then use those part ID numbers to look up the E-Z-GO part numbers for those gears in the text file that I attached. You would want to keep your limited slip spider gear assembly and the rest of your RXV axle.

I bought a used 2Five to get the rear axle for my project. My reasoning was not for the gears so much as for the disc brakes it has. I will have to transplant limited slip into that axle. I'll put an RXV axle into the 2Five because I'm not looking for speeds over 25 MPH in the 2Five when I rebuild it.

Guys after reading this post I have a question hopefully you can shed some light on for me.Im presently ordering a 2019 ez go freedom and I am looking for top speed of 30mph plus as well.Which battery configuration would be the best option the lithium or the 4 12v deep cycle?

I live in a golf community and will be using the cart for golf as well as driving around community.THanks in advance for assistance

Avoid the 4x 12v. Go lithium, or get the factory 6x 8v setup.

And no High Speed Gears...
