So far, I've had a far from pleasant experience building my electric skateboard. Nunchuck problems, DRV problems, but one thing I never expected was for bits and pieces of my VESC to simply fall off- well, sort of.
The center capacitor has broken it's leads off. I indeed intend to replace it before riding the board again, but I'll need to also replace the inline XT60 loop key connector that has melted, possibly from a bad solder joint (it just looks unhealthy!). Preferably with an XT90. Obviously I'll be much more gentle with that end of the VESC, but I wonder if it was a pothole or something else that did it in. Where is the best place to get an exact replacement?
