So, I picked up this mysterious, cheap drivetrain, ESC & remote combo from Jared @BuildKitBoards, and I’m having a hard time finding any information on it. I’m not sure where he got it and he says he doesn’t really know any details about it, so I’m hoping you guys can help me figure out WHO made this, WHAT some of the ESC components and connectors are for, and WHERE I can hopefully find some more info and specs, if they even exist. At first glance, it looks like just regular cheap, crappy Chinese components, but upon closer inspection, it looks like the drivetrain and electrical components are actually of decent quality. There’s a liberal amount of somewhat tacky glue or some sort of thread lock on almost every bolt, speed washers and spacers on the wheels, and there’s even a mysterious “F” logo on most of the drivetrain parts. The ESC looks like it might have a Bluetooth module on it, and a couple other connectors that I’m not sure what they do, so any help figuring this out is greatly appreciated.
Anybody know what the little green PCB is for? Bluetooth? I assume the little red PCB below it is the receiver. Also, I’m guessing the white connector might be for a voltage/battery display, and the short lead with the black plug is for charging since it says “charge 2” (where’s charge 1?) on the PCB, but does that mean this esc has a built in BMS? A And the second longer lead with the black connector is what? Charge 1 maybe, I can tell cause of the white goop? The other confusing thing is that the black plugs can actually plug into each other, but I don’t know if they’re supposed to, or if it’s just a coincidence.
Time to go digging around for iFasun information.
