Paul, thingstodo -

These are some great videos and data of the debugging process - thank you very much for posting all of it.

I'm a bit confused about the regen mode, could you clarify some things?

Is the DC motor driving the rotation of both motors?

It seems that when the rotation gets to zero, it then reverses - is this true?

Is the net current between the AC motor and the battery pack flowing into the battery at all times during regen? If not, it's more of "reverse torque" than pure regen - does it switch modes?

If so, (if it does reverse) what happens with the current near 0 rpm?

- Thanks,
E*clipse
