somebody hold this guy back. he's out of control! He will not be denied...

The hardware overcurrent trip isn't being reset automatically, so if it trips, you will have to cycle power at the moment with the version of software I sent over. It's just to prevent catastrophe while the bugs are worked out. Also, don't forget that full clockwise of the little POT on the board means hardware overcurrent trip is 1800amp. Full counterclockwise means hardware overcurrent trip is 0amp. I think full clockwise would be OK, because the 3 IGBTs are rated for 600amp continuous each anyway (assuming a magical infinite heatsink, and running at 125 degC or some such silliness). The default maximum motor amps at full throttle that I sent to you was 100. haha. That's just for testing it out.
