Having trouble with UART pairing

I am having some issues pairing my remote through uart. I have a stormcore 60d+ and a Flipsky vx4. I paired the remote and receiver and they connect just fine, but I am having trouble with setting it up with the input setup.

I set app to use as uart
I set control to current
I set smart reverse to off
Motor configs are done

I really don’t know what to do for this as I have only used ppm before. If anybody has any solutions, please help. Anything is appreciated.

Have you tried swapping your rx/tx pins?

Not yet, but I’ll try that now

It didn’t work

Try flippin to nrf

Do you have it set to Fsesc 6.6 in the vx4 menu? Also is your control type set?

Control type as in uart/ppm/nrf?

His talking about the menu on the remote

Then uart

I’m having the same issue. Just with a new bkb voyager remote. Stormcore 60D.

Uart/current is selected.

I get board voltage in the display. So there is some communication.

Everything worked with the ppm remote i used before. Still does when choosing ppm as control and using maytech remote it had before.

So, bumping this thread hoping someone has the golden answer.

Check the VESC remote tab.

It’s set to current, smart reverse is off also

Update!

This was the trick for me. It’s now rolling. Thx @glyphiks

Did you have any luck @Akbrock47 ?

I checked them but they did not need switching

It just randomly started working for some reason though even though I didn’t do anything

“VX4” + “Stormcore 60d+” here.

I had the same issue.

After flipping the TX RX pins as suggested by @glyphiks everything works now.
Thx!

Settings on Remote:

  • ESC Type: FSESC
  • Control Type: UART

Settings in Vesc:

  • App to use: UART
  • Control Type: Current

hi guys, sorry for reviving this old thread,

i bought a sprintend Uni1 V2 from @EboardSolutions / @pjotr47 and am trying to connect it to my stormcore 60D+

im running into the issue that the pairing process does not complete at all.

i tried with all the settings suggested in this thread, all the pins are correct (except tx and rx swapped) and the reciever powers on and is blinking, but the powercycle pairing process never completes. i tried setting uart to esc A or B, bluetooth is idle on the remote, ppm is off. and in vesctool like i said, i think i made the right settings. i tried troubleshooting with AI, to no avail also.

any ideas ?

edit: could anyone with a uni1 v2 tell me what firmware version is on it ? ai suggested that the fw 1.02 actually points to a uni1 v1 remote
