Another Hall Sensor upgrade
-
This mod from MilesD fwiw is terrific, I received mine a few months back, it’s really easy to install and configure and it works perfectly with RS TUSBA > I waited much longer for a replacement Z pot from TM so long, I almost forgot about it and tbh I can now forget about it because I am delighted with the mod from Miles, he’s cured a lot of headaches with this one.

For cost and installation, the best mod out there. After Andres’ Jetseat, of course.

@MilesD, you have PM

Same

mine is on it’s way… Yeeeaaaaa!!!
Guys he has lot’s on his head… He had to move and in the mean time orders where coming in… also he had a delay for some parts he had ordered… so just wait a bit, he’ll get back to you.

Its booming business I can imagine
-
No problemo.
I have patience. Good things are worth the wait -
O.K. I think I am caught up now on all orders. If you have not received a paypal invoice from me, please PM again. Thanks for all of your patience. I was in the middle of moving my home shop around when interest peaked in these kits.

I was able to drop the price for international shipping and paypal fees. I am packaging them in flat envelopes and it makes customs easier.
1 kit $10.00 USD
2 kits $12.00 USD -
Mine is on the truck to my house from the post office and should arrive sometime after noon today, according to the tracker update.
:headb: -
Lucky you… mine is still in US.
Enjoy it bro…!!! -
Works perfectly first shot
Gets the AV8R full approval.
Brilliant Miles. -
AV8R bought to my attention that there was no instructions or links to instructions included with the kit. I took his suggestion and include the links on the invoices now. Here are the links for anyone else.
Thanks AV8RYou Tube Instructions

Just received my kit, as soon as I can I will try to install it!
Thanks Miles!! -
Nice…
:lol: I’m sure u all get it and I’ll get after all… Still in the US… Next continent probably Europe… it will make some tourist passes to France - Germany maybe Holland and next yeap Greece…
Miles most guys live in Europe u should consider moving to Europe… The climate is better… our currency is better… we have suspense… you’ll never get bored… way better health care system. Better food… specially in the South region… Exquisite islands and sea sites for the summer… and 3 continents near by for traveling… :rofl:
Are you still there? :lol:

Not to forget: we don’t have Trump nor Clinton!

As soon as the kids are done with college and the dog dies we will be considering it. I know my wife is up for it. As long as I have a place for my CNC machines I will be happy. My Army pension go’s with me anywhere, but we would loose our military healthcare.

just found out they have a program for expats. hmmmmmm -
Ya know, i was successful with installing and centering the sensor to magnetic ring without the instructions. Just used common sense and symmetry. Moving the throttle throw fully back and forth, i marked with a sharpie where the sensor should be on the middle of the core and tightened it down. The center of the ring corresponded with the throttle handle being perpendiclar with the base (symmetry). I chose the unopened side of the ring magnetic core to face the sensor because thats less likely to snag on the sensor pcb (if i was wrong, pretty sure the throttle would be inverted or not work at all). The gap distance was small enough to move freely (about a dime to a nickel’s thickness). I did have to unloosen the two screws holding the sensor pcb to its mounting bracket and realign it to be parallel with the face of the magnet ring, then retighten it. It was slightly off.
Going back to Miles’ videos now, i can see the first throttle video doesnt go deep into using symmetry to get a first pass at ring alignment, but otherwise it looks fine. Also, im not sure what TM utility he was using for alignment. I used the TM CCP as pictured above. Both work.
In the second throttle video, which shows how to “calibrate” the upper and lower dead space out of the throttle’s full movement. What Miles is showing is how to effect the magnetic coupling between the magnet ring and Hall Sensor solely by adjusting the gap between them mechanically. Due to hysteresis, if the gap is too close, the upper and lower areas on the throttle throw are saturated and it has like a dead zone on either end. Increasing the gap will reduce these dead zones. Thats the calibration method Miles is showing.
Another method that can be used separately or in conjunction with this gap method, is to recalibrate the TQS in the TM CCP utility or the Realsimulator TUSBA utility. The gap method could be a course and the utilities a fine calibration methodology.

Since I have trouble understanding your terminology (English is not my mother language) could u be so kind and in your pic add arrows of what is what?
About using the not opened side I believe once I get it I will understand it?
