Do you have a multimeter and a link to your throttle or a manual for it? The first thing I’d check is the resistance as you turn the throttle. If it’s something like this: Domino Potentiometer Throttle , you should get a smooth change in resistance from 0 to 5k ohms as you turn the throttle. That would at least let you know if the throttle is operating normally. It sounds like, most likely, you just need to map the throttle. There should be a mapping tab under ADC like this:

Oh also, at the bottom there should be this:
You can use that to see what the signal is from the throttle live and have those values applied once you’ve run through the full range of throttle.

I’d like to add that you will probably need to click the RT APP button on the right side if no values are showing in that field.

Hello, I recently purchased a flipsky vx2 pro remote with receiver. My old remote was the exact same one but broke. I replaced receiver and sync remote but wheels are not spinning. I purchased a vesc tool app but the board doesn’t have Bluetooth connection. Is there a link I can I use to configure the board? Thank you
You can download vesctool from vedders site for free. If you don’t have Bluetooth, then use USB or buy a Bluetooth module. It’s extremely handy having a Bluetooth module
If you’re new to vesctool, I think the full version is more intuitive to understand. A laptop might be best.
Did you plug the new receiver into to same channel vesc as the old one? If you didn’t, that would cause it to not work because of the settings.
I would avoid rewriting (updating) ESC firmware solely because a tool suggests it, or solely because a new version is available. It’s high-risk, low-reward. If you have some other reason to rewrite, that’s different. But tool suggestions or existence of other versions just seems like an invitation for trouble. This isn’t a computer operating system, you don’t need to update for those reasons. It could also reset all your motor detection settings and everything and make it not work anymore. Just don’t update it unless you know what you’re doing. Just edit.
