Default GM motor sensor

do not have experience on GM motors. Are they a regular sensor, or a special GM sensor like on the speed control?

If you mean the plug on the sensor lead, then it's the same as other motors.

yes, thanks, thought so as I have never seen a motor sensor lead just for GM esc to GM motor.

I'm at a loss however to understand why GM have a different sensor plug on the speed control side

Martin, what does that setting alter actually?
Do you have a pretty decent basic setup for sensorless operation?
In case of running a GM 8T Delta sensorless, what should change in the setup?

I'm new to the GM120 and trying to grasp every possibility of it.
Running sensored with the v13 basic setup and changing it with your quick start guide worked pretty well this weekend. But for sensorless (rain car) I don't know how the get the most out of it.

Thanks,
Jonathan.

Hi,

How does the GM75 compare to the Tekin in ease of use and programming ? I find the Tekin hard to understand but heard the GM's are even harder.

What are the pre programmed settings like for 13.5t ?

Thanks.

the GM has the most advanced settings of them all, however that does not mean its hard to program. You can make it as easy or as hard as you like, but for spec class's, all you will need to do is use mode 7, 8, 9.

that you should probably ask on the novak thread


as for sensorless ... just untick HST / HST wth switchpoint, Change the switchpoint rpm to 10000 (IMPORTANT) and go

Hello, can someone tell me which among these motors have the best overall performance? GM 8-9 delta gm pro 4.5-5.5 and graupner sport 6.5. using with 120 v2 controller. I see power is similar around 700 watt but different rpm. I mean which motor of these have best power in most situations or what are the difference about them?

Thanks and regards

I think Novak motors had the temp sensor from the beginning.
