    Great job sir. Question: Is there a setting in the Tesla to use more of the front motor under moderate acceleration for better wet weather conditions? (Trying to decide between the dual motor or single motor Y which WILL be my next car purchase) :)

    • @eastmanresearch3143
      @eastmanresearch3143 2 роки тому

      I have a single motor model s p85, my thinking at first was that this is cheaper to deal with when out of warranty. The dual motor setup however may do a better job at keeping high performance without wearing out the bearings as fast - the torque can be distributed between the two motors. Drive unit failures in a model s have been pretty constant and are going to be an expense on average every 40-60k miles.

    Is there a list of the sensors that you can tap into on the Model 3? This could be useful for track days or spirited driving if I could view battery temp, SOC, and brake temp, and battery voltage on a central mount in the space a normal guage cluster would be.

    • @TheTechofTech
      @TheTechofTech  4 роки тому +1

      There is a complete list of signals in the TesLAX app. The problem is that they’re not really in plain English. They have the labels that Tesla developers used, but it isn’t always obvious what data you’re actually looking at. That’s why I mention the app is best for people who either already know a lot about CAN buses or people who are willing to work a bit to learn more.

      I am not aware of any app that allows BlueDriver to read and translate Tesla CANBUS codes into gauges like this.

    FYI: Tesla vehicles actually do have Ethernet internally for some things. The Model 3 is 100Mbit, saw something about how the Model Y has gigabit.

    • @TheTechofTech
      @TheTechofTech  4 роки тому

      Yes, but it seems limited to connecting the infotainment system (aka, “the screen”) to the main computer. So, rather than being a network with a router, it seems to be just a high bandwidth connection between those two things. I’d definitely like to learn more about it, but this is all I can find on it.

    • @FnordOok
