I've since much improved how the PI loop works on the AC controller, and that's directly transferable to the DC controller. I'll make the changes and you can test it out.

bad fish racing: It could be the hardware overcurrent protection. Yes I would twist the pot fully clockwise. What current sensor are you using? How are you doing the current sensing? Is it on just one of the 4 IGBTs?
Welcome back Paul!

Duncan had asked if you were selling kits for the IGBT DC controller. Or perhaps built and tested controllers. If the Solitons are getting rare, this may be a 'sales opportunity' ... if you have the time.

If Duncan (and everyone else!) can play with the launch settings himself he can increase the acceleration until he is happy .. or he breaks something!
