@BuildKitBoards what internal components were changed for those of us that may need to repair our v1ās In the future?

Is this common in the hobby? People replacing SMD components if they pops?
If I understand correctly, vecs are mostly open source? Hypothetically, I could make my way though a broken PCB board with the help of the schematic, find the problematic component and replace it with the appropriate tools?
Iām really interested in this kind of stuff. It would be a dream for me to be able to replace smd level component!

That is technically a thing you can do, yes. If I recall, @seaborder and @JohnnyMeduse are experienced with this
So is @linsus in general circuit stuff.

of course you can, 
the world is full of e waste. not only vesc component level repair - that stuff can often be helpful to you with other things too. Just needs some time - depends on how much you know already
remember, despite all the tricks that exist, you cannot always repair every pcb/device if the damage is too big or you lack of information
right for repair is a real thing though

Pretty much everything can be repaired, except for badly damage pcb.
I pretty much started in the hobby of building eboard, and ended up in the repairs business.
But now I gave most of my time to pray my lord and savior @IndianGummy

Everyone should get behind this. It goes way beyond SMD repair too. It can and will affect many aspects of your life negatively if we donāt get proper legislation passed(which takes mucho $$$ to do, go figure 
)

Kinda curious has anyone ever done a top speed test with a xenith and hit the erpm limit or close to it,if so did u have any sort of cutoff or anything.

duty cycle current limit start all the time. Sudden braking has not happened.

oh nice i was re going over the dam esk8 math thread and that shit made be paranoid about potentially high kv motors on a xenith since it only has 100k erpm limit. But then again idk if ur motors are running 80a per motor at 25v then 30a to 40a battery current limit each at 50v on full throttle so my worries could still be justified XD.

uhh I thought it was a 80K safe limit
both of mines says 100k but 80k probably is the safe limit for it

Someone help me find that post with the motor KV limits on all voltages and VESC hw designsā¦

Ffs Iām new to eskate and bought all my parts for a first build in the last few months, didnāt have the info about Unities and bought one from his new site directly only a few weeks ago. My stuff arrived and I only paid $199 shipped but now Iām feeling gross, congrats on this much better development though

Anyone use just a loopkey on their Xenith? Imagine itās the same process as on UNITY, bridging the MOM pins?
