Thank You Jenso!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!

Fixed the vesc....working on a different project (redesigning everything to shave like 5-8 lb) . but will be amazing. Meanwhile enjoy a short video of my finished project. https://youtu.be/YMWfim2H87k

I was running it on 7s and was pretty impressed, there was no heating problem, now i will give it a shot on 6s...it might get hot ...but the track that I use is all asphalt and no hills...should be ok . And another thing that might of burned the Vesc as well would be Max Current Ramp Step that...

I am pretty sure that is what happened too much rpm in short bursts with no load...so watch out for those bench tests at high voltage. Maytech responded back they have the MTES120A-SBEC at 129.00 with tnt shipping and 15.00 for the prog. card, that s is a great price, gonna place an order at the...

Thank you Squad for your input! I will certainly do that (contact maytech directly). Those maytech Escs sounds like a dream minus the regen breaking...which doesen t help us that much...i will just miss the FOC of the vesc ....oh well ..."The Rat" delivered the goodies(Mouser), waiting for some...

I think on 12 s you are really asking for it on the Vesc :) they are good up to 8s ...after that is questionable. I will probably try yo change the drv and revive them, meanwhile saving for the maytech, So the brakes are a little strong...i can live with that, probably the noise is a little...

Drv Chip blew up in 12 s setup on the bench...2nd vesc acts like has no power...drv going down as well ...was fine on 7s :( now...they left a bad taste in my mouth...can t affort to keep burning money on the vesc so... i m going different ...should of listen to Squad. Live and learn, ;)

Been zapping arround for a few weeks with mine and they don t seem to loosen up, but happy that your solution works for you.

Thanks for the inspiration Squad, so far I haven't experienced any problems...just that I will have to solder the transmiter...not too many hills in Florida :) so I didn t get to the limits of the vesc I guess..and still have yet to try the 12s 8000 mah setup, that should bring the temps a bit...

Thanks for the quick answer... that was my last guess ...was doing just a bench test with a couple of 12v fans...i guess the load wasn t enough to trigger the light. I saw your updated post with the maytech escs , how do they perform?

Managed to mill a kinetics 206 Vesc heatig sink plate (Squad inspired). I already know that i m loosing the waterproof function of the box....cause you really need air vents ...I actually did it and the wind just blows on top of the vesc thru the lid... probably will add a couple of 50 mm fans...

I think I have the same coulometer but have no idea how to turn the light on...it does turn on when I hold ok and power up , but that s only for the setup menu...care to share Squad? Btw Beautiful Board:D!!!

Thank you!!!

I just designed the mounts to go over it I didn't modify the trucks. It was cut on a home made cnc router at very small passes , so it took a while... P.S. If anybody is making their own mount don t do what I did and tap the holes for the protection brackets by hand ...ended up with uneven taps...

Finished a temporary enclosure for the Vesc ... I ordered a ultrabox 206 to put the vescs in. Currently running on 7s 6200 mah, received a culometer from china up to 50v...I will add this as soon as I decide on battery/box setup. Black/Blue Wire harness management looks super sleak. Here are...
