Once you use smart reverse there’s no going back. Any board without it feels like junk lol

Np also you don’t need to (can’t ) program the remote with the vesc tool if you use UART

I switched the rx and tx I believe.

#42

This is the PPM mapping tool. Go into the NRF tool. This is a uart remote

Anybody figure this out? I had the VX2 working with a early stormcore 100D. No issues. Got the stormcore upgraded to version 2 so I could have the second uart working. Now VX2 does not work.

Pair works. I can even see speed on the remote when I turn the wheels by hand. But no throttle

EDIT: I’m on firmware 5.03

Ok, figured it out l. UART was set to none instead of current

Hello everyone

i had the same probleme, beetween Vesc 6.6 mini and remote Vx2

after test all your advices, nothing works…

i found the answer on the web site…:confused:

don’t instal the new firmware…

==> see web site

"

Warm tips:

It is recommended to keep firmware 5.2 from factory ship, the new firmware upgrade may damage the ESC.

"

I hope it will help some of you

good luck
