When I turn it on, it is fine, but as soon as I hit the throttle, green light comes back on and no timing system is working. I've turned off all those protections and stuff, and yet it is still doing the same thing. The performance is identical with or without sensor cable. Btw, green light does not flashing, if I test without sensor cable at all. So I guess it is some problem with sensor function


I've tried different motors, including a few brand new, and also have replaced a few sensor units, and all came back with the same result.



Bottom line:

1. Had 2 brand new speedy and 6 brand new motor, and no success
(motor sensor timing was fixed at 5 deg)

2. Changing sensor cable and sensor unit in motor didn't help

3. Upgrading software didn't help

4. All protection was turned off while testing

5. I used LCD programming card, and whenever I changed the setup, it was saved and changed, so there's no argument on this matter

6. Am using 10awg wire on battery and motor

7. Neither motor and speedy was hot at any stage
(motor came back with 65deg celcius and speedy was just cold)
