Trouble setting up VESC

Hi All,
Setting up a DIY efoil. Have a Flipsky VX3 Pro remote, 75200 Pro ESC, 65161,120kv motor.
Used this video as he had the same motor and ESC. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaVPISP8BF4
Got to the motor FOC setting and when going through the RL and A setting I get a red error on Lq-Ld and Encoder offset and ratio on the bottom.
I tried a couple of different I settings but still got the same error. I tried to save but motor wont start when I pull the trigger.
I tried the motor wizard and got some slightly different figures but the same red errors.
VESC is V5.02 which is what it came with. I got a package, motor, ESC, remote all from same supplier.
I tried the setup input, chose PPM. If I choose center control I get a VSC tool of minus 300%. If I pull the trigger dont get any display on the screen. I guess out of range.
Throttle calibration on the remote is Speed 1089 min 1576 max
Brake 1148 min and 1489 max.
Got a bit stumped and going around in circles so time to stop for the night and hopefully get some new ideas. Any advice appreciated.
Cheers

I would try to do the firmware update like shown in the video
Then follow all the steps again
For remote make sure you are connected with the PPM/PWM cable and remote is also set to PPM output

Which battery are you using?
Also you may share the mconf and aconf files, you get them by clicking File-> export motor config XML and app config xml

@ludwig_bre Why are people running FOC, i tend to choose BLDC always-seems simpler and heats less

FOC advantages:

  • better efficiency
  • less noise from motor
  • higher low-end torque (not really important for eFoil but anyways)
