Hey everyone, long time lurker first time poster.
I have already built a fwd ebike using a makerbase 75100 v2 alu with different profiles for on-road and off-road use which has been fantastic to use.
I'm in the process of planning out a custom built 2wd recumbent tadpole Trike, with two of the same controllers, one for each motor, I know when setting up currents and things like that it applies to each controller individually, so for 40 Battery amps total I would enter 20A into the firmware, does this also apply to profiles?
so say I wanted a 500w limit and a 2000w limit total, would I enter 250w and 1000w into the respective profiles or do the profiles control total power?
Thanks in advance.
2wd recumbent tadpole Trike,
Save yourself a big headache getting torque steer tuned in and just power the back wheel. With the right setup, you'll have plenty of torque and speed

Dear Mr. Vedder...(or somebody else)
I am "happy" owner of 100A vesc controller, one kilogram weight ,3.5kW outrunner and 66 pcs. of Li-Ion cells. I highly praise and admire Your masterwork called: VESC TOOL PROJECT...but...possession is not enough to be a Lucky guy. Goddess of Fortune won't smile on you .....until you get educated. And this is a core of my problem. I am standard electrician - electrician bu trade -maintenance guy .. with some Electronic experiences.. but... FOR PROPERLY SET/ADJUSTED VESC-(tool) it's NOT ENOUGH... THIS IS A TASK FOR NARROWLY SPECIALISED - UNIVERSITY EDUCATED EXPERT(S)-! engineers... How Can a guy/girl with medium education fully enjoy their devices which costs several hundreds $or€or£...? Problems which are fixed on vesc forum are not for ordinary folk... plenty of requirements...real QUANTUM of values...Questions seems endless.... So ... what is a solution - (for everyone) ? ...
My proposal is:
pleas ...
# Create (some possible) database (list) of verified-recomended-well estabilished settings of "vesc+mot"-pairs, which's "behavior" -based on (some) requirements will be (briefly) described in attached description. (batt.type too) if it's possible, "pack of settings" could be easy sent by email . Contrive and trump up the way how to transfer "pack of settings" get into vesctool and drop it in vesc.
# Make (affordable payed) service which will Create "custom settings" based on individual "unit behavior" requirements. (May offer limited list of settings of pairs - which's behavior and properties are REALLY and SERIOUSLY tried and approved)
# Make an "homepage post" - place, where satisfied users will publish (in prescribed way) their own settings-experiencies with their pairs (vesc+mot) with behavior-properties of used drive units...(boards, scooters, bikes,vehicles...) (those people could be called DIAMOND CONTRIBUTORS )
or
# Send me some website where I Can buy some cyanide or any venom....
truly Yours...
