Apologies if this has been asked before, but I searched the forum and couldn’t find a satisfactory answer.

I'm looking to adjust the settings of a Bafang M560 motor using BESST Pro to make its performance as close as possible to a Bosch Performance Line CX Gen 5 or the DJI Avinox Drive System.

Specifically, I’d like to optimize:
  • Torque settings: Bosch delivers 85 Nm, while DJI offers 105 Nm (120 Nm in Boost mode). What would be the best torque setting for the M560 to replicate their power delivery?
  • Assistance levels: Bosch provides up to 340% support—how should I configure the M560’s assistance % per level?
  • Power curve & cadence response: Bosch supports up to 120 rpm cadence. How can I fine-tune the power delivery so that the M560 provides smooth and natural assistance at higher cadences?
  • Startup behavior: Both Bosch and DJI have very refined, responsive power engagement.
    How can I tweak the Startup Angle, Acceleration, and PAS Curves to get a similarly smooth start and acceleration?
  • Max power at a given torque: How can I configure the system to deliver peak power at a specific torque value, similar to how Bosch and DJI modulate assistance?
Has anyone experimented with these settings?
Any insights on achieving natural and responsive pedal-assist performance similar to Bosch or DJI?

Many thanks in advance! 🚴‍♂️🔧

Cut the max power delivered by motor for example to 75% and check during full load how many W it generate.

DJI is peaking 1200W electrical (boost), same as M560. Go with M560 default settings, it is fine.
I saw some dyno tests , DJI on Turbo is quite over multiplicated - over 800%. Better to have less steep curve for better power control. Like new Bosch has. Lets say to reach that 1kW mechanical at 300W pedalling. So it will be cca 400%
M560 defaults: 120, 200, 260, 350, 400%

Hi, were you able to find optimum settings to replicate Bosch gen5 as close as possible ?

With default bafang M560 settings it simply deliver power as follows:

E: ~250W
T: ~500W
S: ~720W
S+: ~1000W
B: 1200W

But this corresponds to non+ modes on bosch. With Bosch Tour+ or Auto and now with EMTB+ the power is delivered somehow dynamically and the power changes with torque. Hard to describe it so I wonder if it is somehow possible to replicate on bafang. I thought S+ is the mode which dynamically adapts - similar to EMTB+ on Boshc but seems it limits max. power delivery only?
