Hi all,

I am developing this motor inverter, it is a compact inverter that could reach 160kw peak or double if IGBTs of double voltage are used. I am doing it for a project with a client but I think it could have an application in electric aviation.

It is based on the latest version of InstaSPIN from Texas Instruments. It is a very modern firmware that works in FOC control (Field Oriented Control), It is sensorless (don't need encoder or resolver) and allows to control all types of motors, ACIM, PMSM and BLDC.

I am at home (for near 3 weeks) and I was wondering if there is a movement of amateur electric planes where this inverter has a place
