Dinner with Grandma last night was $60. Iā€™d say my peace of mind is worth about as much if not more. But we are all in different situations. I understand if people are already scraping hard enough to get a full build together. That being said, last time I slammed I spent about $30 bucks on first aid treatments. Puck can easily pay for itself after a couple of those if thatā€™s the case

mmm sre they reliable?

#32

The vx1s have been reliable for a lot of us here. I imagine itā€™s one of the more widely used remotes, too.

My vx2 has been solid, but it doesnā€™t have the established history like the 1 has.

Iā€™ve been riding with my VX-1 for about a month now, had no issues in PPM or UART modes- so far itā€™s been super reliable for me, but Iā€™m guessing my environment is far less EMF dense than other places.

yes. I donā€™t like the way it feels in my hand, so i probably didnā€™t give it a fair trial.

Give it another chance and use it for a bit, it melts into your hand after a while, I canā€™t use anything else now. Also its the best build quality and connection on the market

#37

ok. Send me yours.

Of course everyone is going to have varying experiences but I have used the VX1 for about 4 months without a single connection drop.

My only issues are that the roll to start feature on the Unity does not play nice with the VX1 (Flipsky problem) and when I had Meepo hubs @ 45 amps the lower speed modes were practically useless because there was not torque. With TB DD at 70amps the speed modes are much more usable.

Stop flirting with me in public.

Weird. What does it do? which one do you have to turn on first to get it to work, the board or the remote?
