Well put Roger. I was worried that my comments would appear critical and I want to emphasize how impressed I am with Paul’s contributions. I think we all understand how difficult it is to find time and energy to do something like this. In particular, a huge thank you to Paul’s wife for supporting him. While Paul’s electronics may be a bit basic, I’ve seen much worse from people who are supposed to be EE’s. I should keep my ideas to myself until I’ve tried them myself but I’ll make one more suggestion: Ask your controller experts if rewiring the motor to bring out the field coil separately could be useful, both for improved speed and torque control, and for regenerative braking.
Way cool stuff guys,
Steve
