    Hi, Thanks for the video. I also have a faulty front controller and in the process of installing a replacement, however, I have one question, Is thermal paste necessary for heat transfer to the heat sink?

    Interesting, just bought a replacement minimotors front controller, and surprise, instead of 9 wires it got 14, can't be installed without modification which will void the warranty, Dualtron doesn't seems to have much infos, sellers don't know about new generation of controllers which won't fit with the existing wiring, well done Dualtron, well done

    Is that the controller that says A and B? My thunder is having the same problem but I noticed some websites only have the controller for sale that say A and B. Do you guys have the controller for the front wheel in stock ? I'll give you guys a call tomorrow. Thanks for this video.

    Low quality. My frontcontroller had some bugs from day one, made complain to after 2months. KWK said this was normal. Frontcontroller totally broke down after 9months. Dualtron only offer 6months warranty. I guess they are made to last only 6months then. Can not recommend this brand or store

    Great videos. I have a request. Can you do a quick video on how to tighten down stem release clamp properly. I was under the impression that these shouldn't loosen up once closed. But mine loosens up constantly

    • @davedeluria
      @davedeluria 5 років тому

      This is the perennial issue of dualtrons. You have to watch for it creeping up. You can lock it down with all your might but you will eventually break the QR washers or bolt so best to just keep it tight but not enough to cause breakage and watch for it creeping up every so often.

    • @satur9satur9
      @satur9satur9 5 років тому +2

      @@davedeluria I've actually wrapped velco around it.just always wondered if I was doing it correctly. I've read up on them on bike forums who all say QR clamps aren't supposed to loosen. But I tighten it enough so there no back and forth on the stem.but even normal riding will cause you to apply a lot of pressure to stem. Which I believe causes it to loosen. I might just replace it with a Allen head bolt and lock washer. I keep the tool on me anyway.

      You have to clamp it with the handle perpendicular to the direction of travel. If you try to clamp it with the clamp handle in the other orientation, it does not have room to snap into place due to the steering column getting in the way.

    Hi Guys, I purchased a dualtron thunder about one month ago (here in Europe). I replaced the suspension cartidges (softer) and tyres (PMT). All was well until all of a sudden the front motor stopped working. Really disappointed! The front wheel only spins with lots of resistance (nobbly). The back wheel spins fine. Is it worth checking the switch or the controller or does the motor need replacing? Thanks for the advice.

Can I connect an accelerator to the Display wires? Please help me. Thank you very much. greetings

    do these controllers also control the brakes? I think my brake controller fried, (after 1 week). How do I know if it's the front or the rear?

    The controller may be fried if yours settings are:
    P8 = 100
    P9 = 3
    Which means full available power output.
    Tested at 90% battery, 80km/h (50mph) on flat surface. I have noticed abnormal front motor behaviour, looked like power cut off for very short period of time (100ms), randomly. Probably some sort of electronic safety (over-current protection?).
    My advice is to put setting P8 to 90 or P9 to maximum 2. This event is no longer occuring after 200km (125 miles). May be specific case of my model.

      Settings are on page 12 and 13.
      On some settings you can press and hold the bullet point button for faster value change.
      For the experience depending on settings, you have to figure it out on your own. I am still learning how to squeeze all the juice from this machine.

      @@SaltCreep45 yes, these are factory settings. You may want to use full power, although treat riding with full power like revving combustion engine near the red line. It is fine, but do not use it for too long and often, so the controller may have time to cool down.
