Yes this…is there anything like this on 23.46? That i should be aware of? I took my first ride ever on a unity today lol…after my ride I noticed duty cycle current limit start was set to 100% and I flipped

It’s not “Duty Cycle” or “Maximum Duty Cycle”, it’s “Duty Cycle Current Limit Start”. I hate to be pedantic, but these are totally different things.

Haha all good i look at it as the same thing whenever i say duty cycle im talking about the limit myself but of course that really doesn’t come across well when u dont say it properly

we don’t need that if we r only riding hobbywing / god tier lingyi prebuilt, but in the vesc tool world, all the details matters, one word missing can mean changing wrong setting and kissing the street while going who-knows-what kmph

I’m having the same issue on other vescs.

@Skyart going to reiterate this as well.
I held out for a long time jumping to 5.1 on my unities and noticed a lot of weirdness right around when the duty cycle current limit start issue started popping up.
Reverting to 23.46 fixed EVERY issue I had with full throttle wonkiness, particularly the weird motor oscillations at 95% duty cycle. I still haven’t updated my 2 other unities to 5.1+ FW because I don’t like the duty cycle “fix” of lowering the limit start. It made my board feel too sluggish in the top end accel range. 23.46 just worked. No speed profiles though which was a nice feature. Though I’ve admittedly never used it…
Then a unity blew (on the bench after acting oddly) and I had a 60d waiting to pop in and here we are.

Guess I’m going back to 23.46 as well
and I’m downgrading my mtb to below fw 5.

Keep in mind that was specifically with a unity and as a result of full throttle weirdness, no other reasons.

Yup, same for me.
Downgrading my MTB is also due to the duty bugging I’m having on regular vescs, non unity.

Me casually awaiting the restock of Xeniths…
So if I end up with a Xenith in my next build, should I just start straight up with 23.46 and not bother with FW5.2?

me personally i use fw 5.2 idk if unity firmware works or not ud have to check with @BuildKitBoards and maybe @frame
The unity 23.46 works fine as it is, unless u need smart reverse or HFI

There’s going to be a pretty significant announcement this week. Sneak peek on IG for anyone who wants to put the detective suit on.
The wait will 100% be worth it.
