I own a Ryobi 480e riding mower and admin a Facebook group for these 48v mowers. The drive controller on these mowers has a moderate failure rate. I'm trying the Flipsky vesc.
What a learning curve, I've never used any programmable controller before. I set up the high torque low speed 1500w motor. The axle has a gear ratio of 10.4 to 1. I tried it with and without hall sensor with no difference so stayed with non sensored for simplicity.
After figuring out all the settings the mower has more torque and better throttle response than ever before. Next is to replace the 2 blade controllers with a Duel 100 a Vesc. These motors are low torque high rpm 1200w direct drive.
One question I have is during motor detection it shows 153 amps. Is that max phase amps or contious amps?
Anyway here's my setup video only 8 minutes long. https://youtu.be/rhI539TZhZk?si=_Vea9DdZTy8YWTk9
