That sounds awesome, Ben! I'm done with the mosfet etching, and now I'm going to do the diode etching. I'm putting in 12 each (just to see if the driver can handle it. Mathematically, it should be fine.). You will have a current range of 494 to 776 I think. I think it would have been OK with just 10, but now I HOPE the full 776 will be safe(ish). I'll work as quick as I can. It sounds like you have a lot of awesome places that you can go to show off your car! I talked to Fran, the motor controller expert from the eastern bloc country. He is working 16 hour days right now trying to finish a project by Friday, so after that, things will move a bit quicker on that end for the control board. He's helping to make it more robust and bulletproof.
