I’ll try drilling a hole in the screw with a… Drill

Will buy wera!!!

No, those drills cut while turning counterclockwise. They aren’t regular drills, you have to turn them backwards

Option B is to cut a slit in the bolt and remove it with a flatheat.

Niklas · June 30, 2020, 11:30am

Yeah thanks! Tried with a powered drill, but no success…
No easy way to get them out?
Idc if they survive… Just want my motor

Niklas · June 30, 2020, 11:31am

That’s the way I want to go - how do I cut the slit?

Halbj613 · June 30, 2020, 11:41am

And if you don’t have a Dremel?

kook · June 30, 2020, 11:43am

buy

Halbj613 · June 30, 2020, 11:44am

Do they have blades small enough and strong enough to cut through bolts?

kook · June 30, 2020, 11:44am

research

Halbj613 · June 30, 2020, 11:45am

kook · June 30, 2020, 11:57am

you can edit your posts

Timmy · June 30, 2020, 11:58am

and deleted ones?

xsynatic · June 30, 2020, 12:25pm

You don’t need to delete comments if you edit the other ones in the first place, before posting another.

Hiii would changing the shunt resistors to a higher ohm make the current measurement more accurate?

Does this apply to the OG Focbox? I’m running a 10s, 37.5 battery max, and FOC mode. Also is the default mode FOC when you setup a motor through the vesc tool?

b264 · June 30, 2020, 1:39pm

No, only the VESC 4.12 or any other VESC derivative with the same MOSFETs. The FOCBOX 1.3, 1.6, 1.7 all have DirectFETs and are not the same. (But do use 410,411,412 firmware versions)
