Re: Torque vs. Speed

Oh yeah, you're talking about the PWM command signal...I think Hachiban is talking about motor speed...and they are not the same thing.

Hachiban is worried about the motor running at near full power, just because it has been set up to run at near full speed (determined of drivetrain gearing). This is not how it works, the current draw of the motor depends on load as well as well as the speed.

I think he doesn't understand the relationship between torque, speed, current draw, and power. Again, it takes a while to figure out how it works.
