Why not just use another receiver so you don’t need to connect to the VESC at all? One PWM (“PPM”) receiver per ESC and another receiver for the lighting system.
You could even put it on your helmet if you wanted to.
How would it know when you apply brakes unless you used both transmitters all the time?
You only use one transmitter.
So if I’m following right your suggesting binding 2 receivers to 1 transmitter?
No, I was actually suggesting binding 3 receivers to one transmitter.

@b264 What device/software would you use to implement the active brake lights? I’m at a loss ever since my photon melted. I’m impatient, want to install active brakes and a horn but i missed out on beta for the ttl system
Check out this project. I’m not sure if @Mich21050 is still working on it but it just may be what you’re looking for.
I really want to design a simple controller for just head and tail lights, but it will have to wait till my other projects are in more stable states.
Yeah, something like that 
or I have some code I wrote for an ATTINY2313A microcontroller that works great.
Right now there isn’t anything on the market … yet …

Well j just found out that the metal bracket holding the lightbar to my board is made with very crappy material…screw pulled through it with vibrations and kept a piece to itself. Time to create a new one

Yep, I have a huge washer on mine
That mount sucks, I had the same issue. Then when I added washers to distribute the load, the two arms broke in half instead of the base lol.

@Saturn_Corp thought it would happen. It’s just a bitch to install (I have to dissemble the entire truck to get to my screw)

Did smthng similar for my bar lights. Mounting bracket is made out of steel that I just transformed from a light blank-up cover plate.

Why does that cable hurt so much to look at? Either way that’s a badass build…I like it.

Some like symetrical layouts. You wont be able to see much cabling underneath anway

The rear light is amazing but the front light is not really bright enough to see obstacles so I think ill be mounting a small flashlight on my helmet.
