The set has power. Either I’m too far ahead of the board or the board is steep. I inched forward but I can’t get enough speed. It is true that the balance point between going steep and sinking is very small
With your weight, you might want to consider getting a bigger wing set to help you learn. About 80-90kg riders usually learn pretty quickly with my X-Over XL + 46cm X-Over stab. I would imagine 100kg would be ok with it as well.
There is no way a cell is that high without being on fire, so please inspect the balance wiring carefully and if not fixed, replace BMS. You can send pictures of the pack wiring if you want someone in here to give comments on it.
Hi, I think you should get more watts 2300 is not enough Power. But your motor can do 6000w.Your config from the vesc is wrong a think.Got the same problem. Do a static thrust test. Play with the frequenzy till detection get realistic results. Watch this video it can help you a lot. https://youtu.be/ui_6O5GrbnQ
Also the propeller diameter can be to big. For your weight front wing should be bigger
I just tried a veloce mt 1050cm2 wing with a similar setup, it barely lifts, sometimes i can get up only by paddling with my hands during full throttle😄 On my bigger board i can easily get up on YPRA 800cm2 wing…
I am 95 kg. Board is 120x60x15cm, looks about the same as yours (but you got the step in addition.)
This makes me think your setup might work but is marginal to fly. The mastplate box stuff will add a lot of drag - you should make a streamlined cover for it - or countersink it as much as you can - and try some different propellers.
Check you battery amps on the VESC tool as well. Should be around 120amp to get the full 6000w from the motor. If you are running the power through the BMS you might need to decrease this a little though bit as it could be the overload the BMS if it is a 120amp ANT BMS.
That’s cells being 6V is strange. Probably means an error with wiring which means you have two parallel lines at 3V each. Pull the pack to apart to exposed the cells and measure each string with a multimeter. Unfortunately if the pack is that far out it will need to be balanced with a power supply as bleeding off that much energy with BMS could take months.
It will remove drag at higher speed, but it needs to get to the planing speed for that area and loading first, if you never get there the step doesn’t add a benefit.
In that case: it doesn’t matter where the mast is, unless you have foot strap positions that you need to match.
The mast position decides where your feet must be but not more than that. I’ve used offsets from 0-30cm from the back of the mast to the edge of the board.
