I have basically confirmed today that the rubber spider in my coupler is sort of messed up now. All that 0 HP to 45HP to 0 HP driving to try to get the overcurrent to come on. Also, from having the e-brake on and pulsing the motor (bucking bronco) to get the PI loop tuned sort of caused problems too hehe. It was fun though. I think I'm going to order a new spider insert on the 25th. This time it will be bronze! Very much not as squishable as rubber. Maybe that's a bad idea. Maybe I should get that inbetween one, harder than the black rubber, but wimpier than the bronze.
