Some interesting new tidbits. “Flywheel” weights...
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
Maybe a strategy to minimize wheelspin? Make the bike feel a bit more like an ICE bike?I do not get the benefit of a physical flywheel. Perhaps the motor controller had a problem controlling the motor's torque and speed?
With the ability to read and adjust the power many-many times per revolution a flywheel should be unnecessary. Alta already has a "virtual flywheel", so I am not sure why a physical one was necessary. Perhaps for very-very slow starts. Like when you are stuck on an uphill.Maybe a strategy to minimize wheelspin? Make the bike feel a bit more like an ICE bike?
I think adding mass(or heavier flywheel ) like he did in the video would eat up battery life. you want less resistance not more to consume less energy. I think what he wanted could be done easily in a map reprogram.I do not get the benefit of a physical flywheel. Perhaps the motor controller had a problem controlling the motor's torque and speed?
