Flipsky VX4 remote

what firmware is everyone running? i see V1.3 and v1.4 are out. i just uploaded 1.4 …?

Which firmware are you running now? Any good features on the newer firmware?

Im running the latest, it adds ppm AND uart vs just one or the other

Which version are you running?

Missed that 1.3 and 1.4 are out. Im on 1.2 and was thinking the 1.1 was still the shipping version. Im so out of the loop :sweat_smile: sorry. I wont be updating though unless there is a safety update. Got all the features i need and works works.

Me to, i was going about 25mph and the remote did something weird sort of sputtard i went flying forward in the middle of the street, all i rememberis two kids maybe 13 14 years old in there pjs dragging me to the middle island in the street 10:30 at night we all most got hit by cars coming down Rosecranes it was on a slight turn,i dont think they seen us , i believe in angels now, so to make a long story short im lying here with a broken leg wondering if this has happend to anyone else

Damm dude, first of all heal up. Do you know what firmware you have on the remote and receiver? We were having major issues with the early versions. When two of more of us were riding together with them we had to keep a lot of distance to avoid cutouts. The latest firmware update has been solid for all of us since uploading it.

Running mine through UART, anyone know how to get battery level on the remote? Shouldn’t it just get it from the VESC? I shouldn’t need to attach the blue battery sense wire should I?

Have you gone through the remote menu? Iirc there’s a section for cells in series that I think is default 12s, mine shows voltage as a number as well as a bar for board battery under the remote battery bar.

I’ve set it to 18s, but the battery bar stays full, also don’t know how to switch display screens on this thing.

So much fancier than previous remotes I’ve used, except that one Maytech dual trigger one

Hi, how do I know if I’ve bricked the receiver on my VX4? Is there a way how to fix it?

Hi, I just ordered the VX4 Pro from Aliexpres. Anybody knows if it is better than the original non Pro? It says it has a hall sensor throttle. Are the dimensions the same as the old version. I want to 3D print a protective shell for it.

Give all the details and someone will try to help you figure it out. Nothing to go on from your post. What happened? How have you tested so far? What does ot do or not do?

If all they did was change out the pot for a hall its worth it. The old pot just wasn’t as good

Is this the regular VX4 or the new VX4 Pro?

It has a hall instead of a pot, the thumbwheel nub is physically larger and it has some kind of function button for a horn etc (not sure if it can be programmed to turn lights on or whatever). Like you said just the hall throttle alone is worth it
