Re: (ET) RE: New member needs an ET

It all depends on how the controller was designed, but might get slightly higher top speeds. The max power would stay the same as that is when the armature and field are both on full. But by weakening the field further then the original resistors did, the top speed could go up some. This can't go too far before the armature current would get excessive.

Will the alltrax controller provide more power due to the
finer control over the field? I.e. it could do variable field
weakening and thus optimize the relationship between the
internal series field and the shunt field that is connected
separately not sure what is implemented.
