    My CPR is 4800, it works fine because the steering wheel turns exactly the degrees indicated by the EMC Utility lite interface. I was guided by the connections of the latest EMC version of the Arduino pin 8 to L_En and R_En, pin 9 to LPWM, pin 10 to RPWM.

    friend a question, have you updated your project or do you keep it the same? What do you recommend me? are you still using chains or toothed belt? what relationship are you using? what font do you use? how many ibt? I have observed that in several posts you have spent a lot of time studying the mechanism and looking for better efficiency. Greetings and thanks for answering.

    I meant power supply. I use a pc 12 at 30amp source. Although I have been thinking of creating a source based on a transformer, 35amp rectifier bridge, 12V regulator and transistor and a 40000uf capacitor bank and 20amp protection fuse to protect the system from any spike.

    Spikes are eliminated with ultrafast diodes or high voltage mosfets. The fuse is not about that. And actually you don't need one. If you have an original IBT, you are set with the rest already. Just can build an ultrafast diode bridge protection as an extra measures.

    what is the maximum consumption that you have measured in your engine with that configuration? The idea of the fuse is to protect the BTS from what my regulated source can send, the transformer I have is really powerful, I managed to measure 115amp as the maximum amperage of delivery.

    IBT will take care about everything. You don't need a fuse. It' doesn't matter how much amps your psu can deliver.

    MY1025 takes 14 amps with MMOS on max forces. And if with EMC0.9 smth near 30-40amps, but all sliders should be on maximum concerning the Constant force multiplier. It has a curves, that pulls 20%ffb like 100 already. MMOS doesn't have it. Will work the same if you will put a wheel to the soft lock stop, so that it will pull the max. But it's practically doesn't reached there. So you can even kinda forget about that regimes of work.
