One of them is Ian Hooper's. He's very accessible, and is very friendly about answering questions.

ian@zeva.com.au

Check out his website, too.
Ian's Controller Information


He is running his controller with current and temperature limiting, etc... with the parts I listed. He has a worst case scenario motor setup for a controller. It's an 11 inch WarP (I think) with no transmission (direct drive!). He blew up a 144v 500amp Curtis, so built his own to handle it. It also uses Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries I think.
