I made a batch of my VESC derived design. Without the case it fits in a 55mm tube. With the case it’ll fit in a slightly larger tube. I’d like to see someone use it.
As a VESC it has current control mode and thermal overload protection, and can do 200A at 14S for short periods.
I’m not really “selling them”, though I’d like to see some of them get used rather than sit on my shelf forever. They were made to fit into a tube, so if someone has a underwater drive system i’d like to try and help integrate into that.
I’d happily put one through its paces on a normal build! I can compare it to the arc200 and swordfish 300.
Placing it in the motor pod extends the pod further back which changes the dynamics of where you stand on the board quite a bit. I prefer a shorter motor pod for this reason.
Unless you extend the pod nose and mount the ESC inside…
As the pod is a lost volume, there’s also the option of mounting a cylinder between mast and fuselage ala eTakuma… and place the ESC inside…
Here this would require a 120mm (Aluminium ?) long cylinder which represents the mast chord + a pointed plug/cap.
