Noob question thread! 2020_Summer

can anyone tell me what these connectors are called and where i can find the opposite ends? I think they’re bullet connectors but i haven’t found some online that look like these. Thanks!

You are correct, they are bullet connectors. Do you have calipers or a way to measure the bullet diameter so you can order the right size?

Ok, i’ve got a caliper i’ll measure them. Thank you!

By software for you mean 4.12?

When the brake works it’s smooth.

When it doesn’t work it simply does nothing when I pull the lever back to break. No response.

What do you mean with flaky remote?

Grab the motor by both ends of the shaft and try to wiggle it around. Both along the shaft and laterally. If it makes any sound and/or feel movement it’s the motor. Otherwise the pulley may rub on the plastic wheel core, especially if it’s bolt on or a tight press fit.

They are 5.5mm bullet connectors.

A fantastic procedure is to cut them off and solder an Amass MR60 on there (the female side, with the holes) and then epoxy the male MR60 (with the pins) into into the side of your enclosure, going through it.

Yes, most if not all 63mm motors will fit that pattern.

If you’re not sure, you can look on the sale page for a measurement, or contact the seller.

I take it you hate 5.5mm bullets? :joy:

When you connect the vesc to your computer, in the firmware tab, you will see it says “FW:x.x”. That’s what he’s asking.

They cause more problems than they’re worth, sometimes.

The Amass 3-pin connectors are great because A: there’s only one to wrangle instead of three, and B: you can zip tie them together to keep them from backing out over time with vibration.

It’s possible for the communication between your remote and your receiver to be interrupted, either by external noise or a problem in the remote or receiver itself.

Hi!
Any idea where I can find bluetooth module for sending real time data? I have this (
https://a.aliexpress.com/_dY6VT44 ), but it didn’t send data (I found that new firmware didn’t support it) Also, I don’t want to buy Flipsky bluetooth module… Something for around 10-20 dollars?

why not the fs one?

I don’t know if the AT-09 will work.

The HM-10 will work with Ackmaniac firmware but not Trampa firmware.

The nrf51 modules like the Scepterr or Flipshit ones will work with the newest Trampa firmware.

Not hard at all …this tool made it really easy. My maytech motirs did the same thing I think its the bearing in my case.

Alright I have a noob question after all this time

running dual VESC6 by trampa and feather uart remote.
Right now only the motor that has the remote connected spins up. if I use the pc to spin up, I can make either motor work. SO I know they work. But the UART signal just isnt being forwared to teh the other vesc
@xsynatic maybe I saw you had a similar setup

If I move the uart to the other vesc, then that one spins and the other doesnt

Is there a known source for some good budget slide gear? I already have a good helmet, just looking to pick up some extra protection without blowing my wallet apart
