that is awesome! very nice

incidentally, we tested the board and controller at 200 volts today! even with no load on it, i can already tell it's WAY smoother than the old controller. with the old controller it was physically impossible to go slower than some certain speed...maybe 5 mph. no matter how slowly you eased into the throttle, at some certain point it would instantly accelerate to around 5mph. this one is touchy, but it won't accelerate any faster than you can punch the throttle. which is good!

also, the voltage sense leads to the board are tripping the isolation detector, so we have disconnected them, and adam says we can roll back the firmware so the contactor driver is on a timer instead of using voltage sensing. this thing is looking like it will rock REALLY AWESOMELY
