Is Kp 2000 and Ki 320 OK for a test spin on the motor? It looks reasonable to me ...

I agree that the response could be better but I still don't really understand what shape you are looking for. Fastest possible drop to 0 with only one small overshoot? But this motor was a test that I could do inside while it was cold in the garage .... and it's summer now! This has taken me *MUCH* longer than I was expecting.

If those values are OK, what code should I be running to do the test spin? It would be nice to prove out the encoder signal, verify the throttle response, and get some scope traces for this 5 HP motor.

Then I'd like to move the test setup to the garage and work on the Siemens AC motor that is coupled to the Warp 9 DC motor. I'll likely grab 1/3 of the pack from my car, approx 130VDC 60 a-h renault/nissan leaf pack.
