yes they are.
The V3 motors (That can fit 90mm or 100mm sleeves) are very different from the v2 motors though. They’re more robust, and the sleeves last longer too
What if I don’t have VESC TOOL 1.29? Can the firmware be upgraded? I’ve tried upgrading to 2.0 and it’s not letting me get through the setup input. Its telling me I need to upgrade eventhough i already have.
Thanks. Wanted to be sure. Here’s the issue with this unit: It’s not a true vesc and not that popular, so with so little user feedback, hard to say what issues would come from updating to newer vesc tool firmware.
Here are some reviews of this unit sold here through esk8suppluy:
(The following reviewer updated with vesc tool 1.25.)

I have that esc.
I had issues when I tried updating vesc firmware.
Everything worked when I downgraded to vesc firmware 3.65 (vesc tool 1.28 I think)
When I went to downgrade I had to reflash the bootloader through vesc tool to get it to successfully load the firmware. As far as I can tell there’s no port on this esc to recover it using an st-link, so proceed with caution.
So I’m afraid i just bricked one side of this ESC. As i was waiting my 10 seconds for the upload to be done the ESC timed out and turned itself off. Now it wont recognize it when i plug it in. Is there anything I can do at this point or do I just have a brand new paper weight?
