+technoshamanarchist I heard a pwm would be a more effective way to keep torque up on lower speeds (even higher than you would have on higher speeds) I saw a cirquet of how to build one but I don't know for sure yet.

Do you lose torque on lower speeds?
+bassio16 Yes.

+bassio16 PWM on AC is not that easy, though.
