v3.1 sample. I got the production issues resolved. Expected to be shipped to distributors starting next week.

Will these fit in the LFoc v3 Flowglider enclosures?
Bittersweet moment, I am glad it will be available again. But at the same time, I canāt believe there is still no bolt on terminals in one of the best -and not cheap- focers outthere 
, which as stupid as it seems would be one fo the best features to be able to customize the controller boxes having more space.
For some reason, is never the time.
Still love it, butā¦
Iāve spoken about the possibility of terminals already. It will take some experimentation and proper sourcing to do correctly. Plus the design may have to change slightly to accommodate them. Switching to terminals is not arbitrary and will take significant effort to implement correctly. While I understand some may benefit from it, it is not a request from all markets. The little FOCer is inherently meant to serve general markets in applications of up to around 6kW.

I hope whoever youāre working with pulls through, everybody was shitting on Benjamin when he went with Trampa.
But from a manufacturing and engineering standpoints Trampa did do the job.
Iām sure Rion has tons of ressources for their scooters.
I just hope your Esc donāt blow up and are available for purchase without too much bullshit.
At this point Iām happy to drop 3k for a 750 if it doesnāt blow up and I can purchase it somewhat pain free.
Good luck

Also I can clarify my relationship with Rion/Tronic. Itās not me āselling outā my individuality or whatever like how maybe people perceived Ben/Trampa. Iāve partnered with Rion to create the Tronic brand of components for my more powerful designs. The Little FOCer and the FOCer family is still gunna be all me. Thatās my baby and Iām not giving it away.
ESCs blow up just like car parts blow up when you do something too wrong with it. It takes effort to tune up and get good performance. I only ever intend to improve my designs as I go and I think Iāve proven that. I want to make it difficult to blame the hardware.

This is why others blame the customer instead.

yeah it seems like the current setup is shaman->rion->alienrides->customer.
is the partnership with alienrides official ?
is it between you and them or is it a partnership between Rion and them ?
Anyone has the .step of the little focer v3 -FM version- without case? Thanks

Alien rides is a Rion partnership (which in turn probably correlates in some way to Shaman)
Iām the engineer in these relationships. And the other people do the other things required to run a business. So yeahā¦itās like your typical startup with a few people doing what their good at to try an build something great.

This is from a friend that wanted me to post it in this thread.
He doesnāt know what to do, but he is definitely scared.

Is this a OW type application? Because there are several experts on tuning the Little FOCer for OW type stuff. Who did this individual purchase this from? Motor clicking sometimes means you just need to reduce the observer gain.

Might as well create an account right;) Hi!
Yes, Onewheel application. The motor sound was perfectly healthy (more a sign-of-life sound).
Only weird thing was that all the RT data was alive except the IMU angles: the 3d model was frozen in perfectly flat orientation with Pitch/Yaw/Roll = 0.
So the board would not engage no matter what i did which is a good thing.

Ohā¦and i really would appreciate a recommendation whom i may contact for some proper vesc tuning specifically Fieldweakening related. I use the board daily but the feature has some remarkable side-effects. I do not know folks that use it and also push the limits so it needs some brainpicking and finetuning.
(And i REALLY do not want to join Fecesbook for it, under no condition;)
