Pardon me if i was wrong about the magnet suggestion, sorry. But my question would be, if the speed sensor circuit were telling the controller that the motor were only going half as fast as it was actually going, why would the controller not try to increase motor speed to achieve the controllers desired motor max speed? I understand that double speed using this method is an unreasonable expectation (that was just an example), but some speed increase would be reasonable based on how a particular motor responds to more voltage up to max pack voltage. I have used this method on some newer 48v sepex TXTs with curtis controllers, with a speed increase of about 5 mph on a cart that already did 19mph. Not doubting the pros knowledge, im curious about why and what methods are being used to eliminate this possibility.
