It’s not an assumption it’s an educated guess
Since the stock firmware works on it, I think all they did was modify the hardware current limits. EDIT: I’m not clear if the PRO version can run the stock firmware, and they potentially have a different shunt config
That would be really easy to change and compile new firmware, but if that’s the case, then the no hw limits firmware would roughly do the same thing.
I have a feeling MakerX is better than this, so I think we should get an answer from them first. Aren’t they on the forums?

I just loaded a version I compiled with this motor config and it seems to be working
Take hw_60.h and change
Line 30:
#define HW_NAME "Go-FOC DV6 Pro"
Line 185:
#define CURRENT_SHUNT_RES (0.0005 / 2)
Lines 367 - 369:
#define HW_LIM_CURRENT -180.0, 180.0
#define HW_LIM_CURRENT_IN -180.0, 180.0
#define HW_LIM_CURRENT_ABS 0.0, 200.0
(I would upload or link but I’m apparently limited as new forum user)

Very nice! MakerX said they would provide the source code so we will see if they made any other changes, but this looks right based on what he said he changed.

idk if this is an issue, but I’m unable to choose a file on the APK version of 3.01 on both my chromebook and my phone, and using both versions on my chromebook.
why did you build your own file browser when every OS has one by default?
This has been broken for ages. I don’t think it’s ever worked.

well my VESC is sealed in the build, the only way to access it is over bluetooth through TCP of the metr.
idk how to get 5.3 on the VESC, I’ve tried using the PC version over TCP and metr BT on windows twice and after a seemingly successful FW upload the FW was the same and nothing changed, using the metr to BT to the VESCtool app is no better.
Use the beta APK I posted above. The file selection is not broken in that one.

installed it on my chromebook and the weird diy file browser still shows none of my files
the phone version just gives me “BLE Connection error” as always. it’s never worked with metr no matter how much people say it should.
why won’t VT just come with the FW I need or automatically pull it like it used to? using custom files is a real pain when I don’t have access to the USB port.
When I did it on my phone it only showed access to 2 folders, camera and Instagram, I just moved the fw file to one of those folders and uploaded from there, worked fine.

I only got “computer” which seems to only contain files for VESCTool.
I went through the entire folder structure displayed, there’s very little of it, and none of my personal files or folders were there, just some app files and a folder called “osm tiles”
Can you move the fw file to “computer” and it show?
No idea where that is in my filesystem, none of the folders are recognizable and no folder in the structure gives any info as to where it’s located.
I don’t have a “computer” directory, and the subfolders have names like “0” and “files” and “vedder.vesctool”
On my phone I did try moving it to /Android/Downloads but it still wouldn’t show up when browsing with the VT app
Jeffrey compiled the Mac version. To drop this into your purchased files container, you need to visit this page and complete a checkout again.

This will also make the BETA available under purchased files .

Does the beta support more FWs? I’m still waiting for VESCTool to have the new FW for my VESC.
Does the mac version work on M1?
