Hello, I did not hear it before. My experience shows the slip is relatively constant so if it increases then the motor would stop immediately. My feeling is you want a so called closed-loop regulation instead of V/Hz. Of course, it is doable, normally with a tacho-gen. BTW if you tell me the conditions (size, power, etc.) I could try to find an appropriate solution (Mitsubishi drives are REALLY small in lower power class).
