Hi, I have a new micro ODrive on a FingerTech FT1806 motor and an external SPI encoder. I keep getting CURRENT_LIMIT_VIOLATION errors even though I’ve put the current limits up really high. I’ve tried increasing the current_control_bandwidth and other items I’ve read about on the forum but no luck. I could really use some help.
I captured a triggering event using the webgui, I’ll see if I can post it here.
I’ll also attach my current config - I have tried various settings changes but this is my latest. It doesn’t look like the current actually goes over my limits so I’m not sure why the error is triggered.

very curious what you’re using it with?
