Dont have a dremel or a saw.

You only need a drill and a file. Or just a file and a nail.

Epoxy helps A LOT.

I only have a drill and a wood saw, but i need an excuse to get my dad to buy me a dremel. I luckily dont have to pay for tools.

Use a roto zip bit in your drill. Cuts aluminum perfect.

bump still looking for a mini vesc of some sort, preferably the lower amperage makerx/fsesc mini 4.xx

Evwan · February 28, 2021, 3:51am

bump also expanding this to torqueboards ESC or mini fsesc.

bump ill take any single vesc actually. The one “rule” is that the max dimensions are 90x180x22. I dont really need a heatsink on it as my enclosure is just aluminum. I’ll use some thermal pads and hot glue to hold it down.

b264 · February 28, 2021, 9:41pm

Hot glue could melt if it’s holding a heatsink down.

I had connectivity issues when my VX1 remote receiver was in a metal enclosure, so definitely be careful with that!

Evwan · February 28, 2021, 11:14pm

Yeah, I was gonna stick my antenna out of the enclosure with a teeny tiny hole.

Evwan · February 28, 2021, 11:14pm

Good point, I’ll find a way to adhere it down but I just need a very small vesc.

b264 · February 28, 2021, 11:49pm

If small is your goal, MakerX are worth a look

Flipsky MiniFSESC 4.20 as well

I wouldn’t drive those past 25A batt max

Evwan · February 28, 2021, 11:52pm

my battery is a 10s1p of 30q, wouldn’t do that anyways

b264 · March 1, 2021, 1:01am

Oh yeah LoL

I personally wouldn’t run that past 15A but definitely don’t exceed 20A

Got everything I wanted, please close the thread.
