Good to see this stuff starting to make its way into the aftermarket. GPS derived speed is problematic at high rates (50hz) and at high accuracy rates such as 10hz it's not fast enough to be useful. The correct answer here is an inertial navigation sensor that uses sensor fusion (mag/Accel/gyro/GPS) to derive very high speed data (500hz) both in body frame (xyz) and globe frame (LLA). It will also provide lateral velocity data for cornering traction control. Hoping to have a product later this year.
Could. You guys ask power tune what happened to their VR38(increased to 4.1L) AWD S15? They showed some pictures on their facebook a couple of years ago.
Syvecs/Life Racing have been the reference for Motorsport traction and have been doing similar for years….mapping on slip v yaw / lateral g / speed. Recursive decay algorithm is key for smooth power. 12 traction maps all mappable against practically anything with variable gain, recursive decay and slip map adders. Gps track marker can change settings per track. 100hz GPS for ground / radar etc. I run these and the best thing about them is the traction system. It’s good that motec are doing the same.
car and truck manufactories... please take notes of this... not only for a car.. i drive several big trucks for work.. and when i get off the highway and trying to make a turn on a speed witch i know the truck can do ( usually around 50 km/h, depending on the radius of the bend).. the traction controll and ESP kick in and start to apply the brakes.. that is something i dont want because i can feel the weight of the trailer pushing the truck to the outside of the corner witch makes it unsafe.. sometimes i floor it to override the ESP so it doesnt apply the brakes but only cuts power/boost with the TCS so the problem is not just HP and car related.. this can also be helpfull in trucks...
Very cool, I feel like the GPS might be a bit hit or miss. Surprised they haven't implemented a laser speed sensor or something, not really sure what's available but surely that would be a more accurate way of getting an actual speed into the motec
Check out Andy Forrest talk about his AWD traction control system on his old 1500HP wrx WTAC. He uses GPS in combination with known change in speed for each wheel. If it exceeded the known ramp speed increase along with the GPS slowing it would know to begin its magic. It worked well for him. Amazing car
@@andrewlangford88 there’s solutions for low speed. Several Static pressure sensors around the car can take care of that by comparing the data. But good call!
Is the R33 instrument cluster @10:42 a digital dash or are my eyes playing tricks on me? It looks really nice, can you please tell me the link on where to find and for how much? I’m guessing it’s pretty expensive but it seems like a good upgrade to modernize the interior.
Andrew the level of detail through the Motec Datalog is crazy. Totally makes we want Motec for my next project. Ryan certainly had some great experience there
They mentioned any Motecs sold by Powertune will come with their custom traction management strategy built into the firmware. Haltech is capable of the same strategy on some Elites (1500 & 2500) and Nexus, it's a matter of the time and knowledge to set it all up. The fact that Powertune are providing this with the Motec certainly makes it an attractive proposition.
Would like to upgrade my RB S30 to a decent traction control setup in the future, but I am not sure if you could run a good enough setup from a Link G4+ Extreme ECU. Best Link available when I built it but can it run something like this given that the Motec is twice the price and much newer. Its quite driveable without traction control but I'm sure having traction control would make it so much quicker tough the first 3 gears and a massive difference in first.
Sounds the same as an AES Stage 3 fully active system. Set the backpressure on 0.25psi and it will constantly stay there. Have multiple settings for more noise reduction on the street. Active rules!!
This is a great bit of tech for any skyline making enough power to constantly spin the wheels.... could this also be available on a haltech elite 2000 platform? Also where can I get a digital screen like what's in the gtr?

@@MotiveVideo Are the sensor split to both the ATTESA computer and Motec? Or is the Motec managing torque split duty cycle directly as well? (Or option 3 I suppose... is the Motec grabbing data via the ATTESA's Consult bus?)
Cool as fuck. This was promised 10yrs ago with vbox TC. We gotta get on top of this shit! EV is here and is no joke. We need more software ppl in this space. I love EV’s, but we gotta treat ICE like rocket engines; extract max value with software
what % slip do you find has the most grip? I try and stay around 11% with my mickey t et street r, i find they grip more with a little more wheel spin.
Is the powertune dude an independent dealer of MoTec- he's gone to the effort of writing this up but MoTec doesn't offer the code? 👍 thumbs up ;) Bmw MHD does boost per gear or torque per gear then via tunerpro throttle closure intensity. As a standard car BMW traction control is fairly sensitive but i guess they have to for the average driver who hits snow or water on the Autobarn at 180
But hitting snow or water at 180 on the Autobahn is more of an antilock braking and accident avoidance system issue than Traction Control used for maximum acceleration with minimal tyre slip.
@@MotiveVideo I just mean visually, from the perspective of a person watching the video. I could see it swerving with no traction control when looking out the windshield, but with traction control on we were just watching Andrew primarily and what we could see out the window to the side wasn’t as good for seeing how straight the car was or wasn’t going.
How are you able to control a bigger power N/A motor like a 440 LS7? I've been trying timing retard (as far as 0°) and richening up the mixture as far as 10:1 but it's still not enough in 1st and 2nd. Is ignition cut my only option? Not running DBW just yet. Cheers.

Nice! My aprilia tuono was very much the same as this system. Snap tc on a bike sends you into the sky. Good to see the tech on cars

Ryan is very helpful. Good experience with him checking the tune on my car 👍
Man improving on Motec, now that’s special 💪 fantastic work guys!!
Unreal guys. Motive showing the world auzzis leading the way. Cheers from nz
100% Impressive. Does this system allow different oversteer slip angles as gracefully as it manages traction?
That little stretch of road is good fun, careful of the cops, they sometimes like to sit on the outside of the corner in front of the beige building.
How do we get our hands on this system! Also is this a motec specific thing or will it be available for haltechs
