Hello guys, on Bang + coupons this controller available now for ~165$.
I see messages that water cooling enclosure is leaking in some pieces.
And that some current limitation required.
Any additional problems with this controller?
What limitations will be applied for FLIPSKY ESC user? - for example compatible only with Flipsky controller, bluetooth adapter, etc?

Can anyone with this 200A VESC send me some sizes? Mine is still on its way. I checked online but not so sure about those measurements. if anyone can give me the size’s of the box and the stick out of the water outlets that would be great. I can continue designing and 3D print my waterproof box that needs to be epoxyed into the board.
size of aluminium case:86x73x29
water outlets are 16 on one side and 18 on the other
btw this is my second unit, first leaked through the bottom screws - not working anymore (bottom screw holes lead without any protection right into the interior electronics, rust started appearing inside water cooling hose:), got replacement from BG and now it leaks around ALL water outlets, what a joke! Sealed it with plumbing teflon thread, tomorrow first test ride with new ESC and motor but I don´t have my hopes high.
Had to seal mine with Teflon too…this is a common issue
Hey Kubais. Thanks for the reply and sizes. And guess what mine came in today 🤷🏼. I double checked about the screws but they seem to be made in blind holes. So leaking to the internals is impossible. What could have happened in your case is just rusty hose connectors since they are made of steel. What caused it to stop working i have no idea.
Going to reseal the lid with b7000 and buy some brass hose connectors and use some Teflon on the thread.
Hey. Glad to help.
I cannot be 100% sure since I could not open the lid but from what I have seen those screw holes were damn deep and I could see “something” differently colored on the bottom - but that was peeping though 2mm hole 
I went today for test ride with new ESC and new motor and as expected - no action in the water - motor was just staggering 
Than huge storm came in and I had to evacuate. Now at home doing everything possible to find out what was the problem - after 2 hrs I remembered common problem in with mini quads and outrunners - it´s enough that one mount screw is just touching windings and motor is not running, just staggering. One screw was 5mm longer than others
Hi, i have some questions concerning this VESC. I just plugged it for the first time. I set up everything in vesc tool but i noticed something weird : i’m doing absolutely nothing (remote is disconnected) and the temperature is raising. It went from 25°C to 50°C in approx 15-20 minutes, is it normal ?
Also another problem is that i have a fault (2 times out of 3) when i press the throttle : ABS_OVER_CURRENT.So the motor just makes a noise and won’t start spinning. Did i miss something ?
Thanks
Motor consume more than 1A in idle, so I think some load is ok. But don’t forgot cooling it!
I’m learning more of vesc and I like it.but indeed it is not plug and play.
Now I’m stuck with the following . At about 60% throttle it goes from 0 to 95% power. Any ideas how to adjust this ? I played with some settings but nothing helps. Also I can not run the motor if vesc tool is not loaded. It must be connected to the pc and software. See video for the power issue
For land test go with duty cycle control and not current control. However in water current control seems to be preferred by many drivers.
Duty cycle did not do anything different. You mean that the motor goes from zero to full throttle this fast is because of load?
@Louis
Duty control rpm will proportional to trigger play
Current control it is proportional to load , so in air test full rpm is achieved very fast
Check yours endpoints on throttle calibration signal
To get a full play all the trigger from zero to 100% = vesc signal from 0-95%
Check settings such as , no reverse no brake , no reserse…
Which remote do you use ? Pid speed control on the video ?

This i have.
I tried all kinds of settings. It spins so fast.it is not adjustable. But when mapping the remote you see the bar going smooth from zero to full also at the video
Yes but it is in pid speed control mode , duty doesn’t move at first
Endpoints seems correct
Duty cycle no reverse ( apply and write of course )
Yes I have it and I ran it on test bench… It works well so far… Will test in the sea day after tomorrow on 13s.
The good thing is both bldc and foc modes work on it while on the trampa vesc I was only able to run foc (which is anyway the nicest mode…).
YES ! Duty cycle no reverse is working good, thanks
Do we need v4 or v6 for the 200a flipsky vesc ?
I also noticed that when the esc is doing nothing but sit here at the table connected to the battery and PC the vesc is getting hot, 60 degrees at the fet, reading at live vesc tool.
V6 for all flipsky Maytech trampa…
Thanks I think Im almost there, I did install the NO Limit firmware also to be sure.
I now have another thing, duty goes to max 90% percent now at full throttle, That means my 120kv motor is now about at 100kv motor.
I don’t know what I did to make the duty go from 95% to 90%, I want 100% like a normal esc will do, is that possible ?
