Bought a Hisun Efoil from AliBaba and now I am trying to pair it with a Maytech V2 with zero information or wiring diagrams.
The ESC is sealed an epoxy so I have no idea what’s in there. Does anyone have any information on this?
What ESC could I buy as a replacement that would work with my Maytech V2 controller?
I have seen other posts of people trying to replace controllers for this board so hopefully this thread can be the end-all to that discussion once I figure it out.
So far I have managed to get power to the receiver and the controller paired. There is a magnetic safety feature on the ESC. Normally I would get a beep or light from the ESC box when it is engaged but right now I get nothing.
Since I do not have any information on what is inside of the black box I think my next course of action is to also replace the ESC. Any feedback or information would be very helpful!
Typically the ESC will need 3+2+3/4 wires:
3 x Motor out
2 x Battery in
and
3 Wires control: Standard PPM: +5V, Ground, PPM
or
4 Wires control: Serial: +5V, Ground, TX, RX (Typically for a Bluetooth controller).
Not sure If the Maytech works with Serial, it sure does with PPM.
I think the Maytech 1905/2005 use serial only for transfer of VESC data, not for the control signal.
The controller it came with was definitely not Bluetooth so maybe the Maytech could work with my set up? The more research I do the more it seems I need a new speed controller that is compatible with the Maytech.
I also bought this same Hisun efoil and I’m finding it’s extremely underpowered and I want to try and get more torque/power by replacing the tech as needed.
What did you finally end up going with? What is plug and play without a bunch or modification to the hull?
Just won this efoil china model on an auction.
But without the mast + motor.
Agree. Nearly impossible to understand what the components is behind all that epoxy.
So from your owners of this board. It is underpowered?
Do you also have this weird looking remote?
Only 3 buttons, nothing else.
