Both are rock solid this is more lowkey if you esk8 laws are suss.
A friend gave me his broken koowheel d3m.
The esc was dead. I found out koowheel used the standard hobbywing esc. Koowheel wanted 160€ for a replacement. Ownboard sells a hobbywing esc for only 50 bucks (including remote) !
I obviously went for the ownboard esc.
While the esc is identical, with only differing connectors, I can’t get it to work, both motors make this horrible noise at higher RPMs.
Here a video of the best possible wiring combination I found (please remove the space between youtu. And be

The motors look splendid from the inside (can’t post images 
Does anyone have an idea? I’m out of options
Bummer
had a problem on an older raptor, the motor looked fine, but the magnets on the inside of the motor were out of alignment and touching eachother which is horrible for efficiency, that could be what happened. Not sure though never seen a onewheel motor
thanks man!

So I just bought some boardmanics mounts (non-idler) and want to build a short board with 85mm cags eventually…
I was thinking some 160kv Flipsky motors, 13s1p A123 LiFePO4 pack, 36t torqueboard 12mm pulleys, caliber 2’s, and maybe a maker-x dual esc + an anti-spark. Thoughts?
here’s the board 36"

I was doing some board maintenance and decided to update vesc firmware.
I’m running dual focbox over can and updated to the latest vesctool firmware.
I reset all my settings to the same as I always do.
I run current no reverse with brake.
After updating, when I barely touch the brakes (at standstill on the bench) the motors grind and spin opposite directions (from each other)
If I full press the brakes there’s a hard braking noise but no tire motion.
I’m confused I’ve never seen this before any ideas?

Thanks
Is downgrading firmware the only fix then?
I believe so. Hopefully it gets addressed in the next firmware version

Just to follow up. I did test downgrading the firmware from 3.66 to 3.65 and it cleared up the issue
