Foil Drive Max teardown

I’ve managed to get hold of a broken Foil Drive Max and I’m planning to rebuild it using new components.

I could do with some help identifying a few of the parts and any recommendations for suitable replacements.

The VESC is an FSESC 6.7 Pro V2.0, which Flipsky can still supply.

Does anyone recognise the remote receiver module? And I’m assuming the other board is the Bluetooth module — can anyone confirm?

My biggest concern is getting the remote signal to transmit reliably through the board.

Gotta love how they charge 5K+ for a flipksy fsesc, maytech remote, and probably a motor from them too. How old is this kit? id just buy a maytech kit, with the receiver, so if you cannot bind it to the current remote, you have a new one from maytech, its like a 100 bucks.

Don’t forget the design time and… the waterproof alu “Packaging” :wink:
How many working DiY FD Gen 2 style designs on this forum since the Oct 2023 launch: I count two in 2+ years :thinking:

There are the two modules that were installed. Even the wiring is the same
