Motor Setup issues e-Snowboard

Hi Group!

Getting closer to getting this paddle boat running.

I have a snowboard setup with a 60v/1600w motor inside a paddle wheel connected to a 75/200 ESC via 2 x 13s 14ah batteries. 

No load I can get the motor running from the VESC tool. Sensored FOC

If I hammer down on it I get an ABS Over current. (Setting throttle response to 1s solved but seemed like a hack.)

If I try and start the snowboard from a stop it makes some shitty noises and doesn't move.

I thought I would reach out and get some proper help troubleshooting this before I fry something. 

I had some smaller ESC pushing some smaller motors but have yet to crack this combination. 

I was going to try 16s and some batteries with output.

Any help would be appreciated.

I got a bunch of haters doubting my contraption and need to prove them wrong ;)

Hey,

Can you post the motor configuration xml file please, also a quick video of vesc tool with real time data graph, when you run the motor with load. 

Looks like bad detection of the motor to me, or just some bad settings. 

What motor is it you are using?

This page describes the few parameters that should be set in order to support the steering and throttle method being used. This page is closely related to the Motor and Servo Connections page which describes the physical connections between the autopilot, motors and servos.
