- Today we are looking at a few examples of the Far Driver ND series of BLDC speed controllers
Fast becoming our favourite controllers for Hub and mid drive applications we have recently paired the ND72530 and ND96530 with the legendary QS138 mid drive motors with outstanding results !

Been wondering about these controllers and this is the first series I've seen reviewing one so keep it up! A performance video would be great...👍
Hello, What kind of bms is needed for ND96530.
And this controller is suitable for QS138 3000W 70H
Awesome, have been hearing good things about these controllers. When you do the video on performance, can you explain what all the options are for triggering regen. AFAIK they don’t have an input signal for controlling regen like the throttle so would be good to know what it can do and what options there are for controlling it’s behaviour 👍👍👍
Sure thing! We will make sure we cover this in part 2 of the video
what is the maximum hub motor kw that can go with this nd72850.
That the question i had to know about this controller hope we got answer
Hi, i wonder if this is the right place to ask but : I got two fardrivers 96240. I pre-tested them on 12S with a mxus 3k tubro --> works like a charm. I moved to a 24S qs205 ebike, the motor do "try" to turn by 1/8 of a rotation but righ after that i got a "phase current overflow" error on the app when pressing the throttle. When going back to 12S, the error is still here. Have you encountered this issue ? Do you or viewers have any idea of what happened ? Thank you for your time if you take some to anwser me, i love watching this channel :)
Hi, i am using this on Sur-ron, this is a beast :)
I like almost everything about these controllers but always had an issue with mine when coming off regen/e brake where there’s an intermittent delay before you could apply power again to the motor. Made for a really awful and sometimes dangerous ride. Ended up swapping out for a sabvoton which allows instant regen/e brake function.
Its because of your throttle voltage its to high
@@kernhamilton553 interesting idea. You talking about the voltage settings for the throttle as throttle voltage varies up to about 4.5v
We will be doing an indepth video on these controllers setup functions hopefully can help you get it sorted
@@KiloVoltBikes how to enable hill-hold control?
Does it come with the harness and programming cable?
This is my biggest struggle with these high powered bikes is a proper wire harness and compatible components..
Hi, what is the name of that Bluetooth module that you are using because I have a PMAC 450 controller , I did the connections correctly but now it does not want to run and the far driver app is not connecting to the controller making my motor not to run , Can you kindly assist in troubleshooting.
Is it easy to switch a kelly 7230 to the fardriver controller?
The only issue is when I hit a small bump it wants me to come to a complete stop to take off again.
Wish I knew which setting would stop that
we will email you today and will try and get to the bottom of this issue for you - sorry we have been mega busy
i really like the specs of these controllers. i have been looking for a replacement for my SEVCON in my scooter. Wich one would you recommend for a 24S lipo configuration? the 96V or the 108V version?
96v version has a max voltage of 115v so should be ideal for 24s Lipo
@@KiloVoltBikes cheers! you ship to mainland europe?
This will sucked out 250amp battery draw...
Hello everyone. I do have a qs205 and I’ll like to se if this will work good on it, or what you recommend for battery and controller thanks
What is the max battery amp of the 96850?
450A max battery amps 850A phase amps ⚡
I really like these Nanjing FarDriver controllers. Can you explain how to set up the parameters for the use of field weakening in your next video? ps. looking forward for it 👻
But it doesn't have y'all sensors I hear so it can't be ran on a hub motor bike right???
Hall sensors
@@charleshowell6442 runs hall sensors or encoders depending on the version
Looking forward to the 96850A controller~
Will be SICK on your bike ⚡
Do you need to do a hall test to set these ? Is that very difficult? Cheers

So you are correct and my vendor mislead me on the bac power output.
What is the highest 72V Fardrive brother? Annd how much field weakening can this controller do?
At the time of writing this comment the highest spec 72v fardriver is part of the new ND2400 series
The ND722400 has the following specs
Voltage 72v
Battery Current 1350A
Phase Current 2400A
Flux Weaking ALLOT 😂
@@KiloVoltBikes is it available for sale yet? Sounds like what I should of purchased the first time!
The difference in FarDriver controllers is MOSFET transistors and capacitors
Can the nd96850 controller used with the me1507 motor?
I have the 961800 I have some info about low brake. Do you have some info about high brake?
Thanks for the comment - We will be doing a second video on these controllers with details on all the connectors and there functions
I have a boom evader with a 2000w motor do you guys recommend a nd72530 or a nd72330?
220 will do fine but 330 out of the two
What size do you suggest for the qs138 90h? I have a 72v battery.
FarDriver ND96530 or ND72530 is a perfect match for that motor
If you add water coolant jacket then you able to use 96850 spec
Hi what is the max battery voltage that is possible with the 96v model? Can it handle 28s pack (117.6v fully charged)?? Thx
It’s 115v max voltage the 96v models are designed for 26s max
@@KiloVoltBikes spec sheet says 115v but 115v sounds like an odd max. Voltage. Im wondering if its internally rated for 120v
@@MrDeceptacon88 We would suggest just limiting charging to 115v either via charger or BMS settings as the fully charged 28s pack would only be 2.6v over max voltage for the controller .
2.6v is only 0.9v per cell group less then 4.2v , so set each group to only charge to 4.11v which would improve the longevity’s of the cells also .
Another option I guess is as you mentioned hoping it’s internally rated for 120v which may work but we feel there must be a reason for them stating 115V .
@@KiloVoltBikes thx for the advice!
Yeah i could limit my charger. Would you know if there is overvoltage protection feature on these models? I know the sabvoton gives an error in the software even if you add too many cells
Hello. When setting up the controller, after turning the ignition off and on, the phone does not connect to the controller via Bluetooth. How do we fix this?
Where can I download the program for a computer? Your site has a program only for Android.
Thanks for the help.
I would first try unplugging the Bluetooth dongle and re plugging it in
@@KiloVoltBikes tried connecting and disconnecting bluetooth, connecting and disconnecting the power of the controller, installing the program on different phones - nothing helped. It is necessary to flash it somehow, but I don't know how.
Try rebooting the phone….
is there a model that can handle 120v?!
The highest spec controller currently offered by fardriver is the ND1082400
Nominal voltage 108v
Max voltage 128v
Max battery amps 1350A
Max Phase amps 2400A
@@KiloVoltBikes cause I'm thinking of using a lifepo4 battery pack but those cant really push high amps, so ill up the volts to get more out of the new (QSMOTOR 180) without using lithium cells. "making a daily motor cycle"
