The interesting thing is that after i do the detection in the vesc tool (sensored foc) and then look in metr, metr always says unsensored even if the sensors are enabled. I just change it to sensored and press apply.
So my guess is that you still use your sensores but metr just shows unsensored.
you only really need one sensored motor to launch from a stand still without cogging, even on the bullshit fake ass sinewave the vesc based controllers throw out to the motor in FOC.
edit: I guess my confessional in this is that i know vesc based controllers are shit compared to true sinewave controllers and i don’t understand why nobody besides Freefly has ever attempted to enter this space. its like vesc is too gangster or something. its bullshit. or maybe we’re still too small to matter.
I’ve been busy learning how to slide today and what do you know I did toe-side first before heel-side! Bear in mind I’m using sliding gloves and that helps a ton…
It took me around 20 minutes to start doing a push-up slide having never previously done it but like @yelnats8j said you just have to
SEND IT.
I’m even using fresh AF Kegel’s so anyone who says you can’t get rippy on grippies is tripping.
Order of operations:
Pre-carve toe-side into slide (starting off slowly, I was sliding at only 10 km/h)
Put both pucks on ground shifting majority of body weight onto gloves.
Reduced weight distribution on feet allows wheels to lose traction more easily.
I was thinking about this recently, skating in my teens i was one of the few goofy riders, all the rail slide spots we had were for regular riders… I ended scared of heel side to this day brain just says hell no lol
Here is a video I had to put together for school, most of my friends only started learning at the beginning of the summer so its cool to see how far everyone has come.
He is a rag doll man, I’ve seen this kid fall doing 40 and he just flies. We think he finally killed him self and he is already back up and on the board going down the hill.
I stepped on an evolve board today
I had to bottom out the throttle to get moving, then the brake to eventually stop.
I don’t understand those damn prebuilts…
If i dare to bottom out the throttle on mine i go zooomm, then brake to stop on a penny :c
Some people really enjoy the thrill and excitement from the random cutoffs. Personally, I find it a little overrated. I’m more of a reliability type of guy. I know I know boring right? But that’s just me
For what it’s worth, I had an Evolve Carbon GT for a long time and never had those cutoffs. I did have some power switch malfunctions that mimicked remote cutouts in symptoms, but as soon as I figured out it was the power button rattling out, I didn’t have that problem any more.
I suspect more folks had power buttons rattling into the “off” state but thought it was remote cutouts.
I would not trust that kind of board anywhere near cars, or people, or even bumps in the road, and that’s not even because of the remote
Although that one is weird as hell… so much throttle range yet it bites around the last 30%
