So other than the vesc somehow getting disconnected theres really no concern about bricking the vesc with a firmware update?
Its easier to know what battery it is if you open it up. I had to do it for a teamgee battery and idk what even is a JDL battery…
Not that I’m aware of.

awesome. thanks for the reply. ive never done this so I wasn’t sure what to expect but ive read a lot of warnings about updating it incorrectly.

Those warnings mostly apply to everything when updating firmware.

Yeah, I think that would work.

as long as u don’t wire the pins for those led ones if using the latch off for NC, then its the same both ways

Cool, I’ll be sure to do some testing.
This is how we did the original OSRR beta remotes with a latching button.
I believe @Blasto originally did the same for their Antispark before switching to momentary.
Only advice would be make sure it’s a button with a sufficiently deep throw/latching.

Why would this matter, if the depressed/latched state is the “off” state?

Just to clarify do you mean I can fully program my vesc using the Stormcore app and that I do not need to even use the Vesc-project tool?
Does anybody know where I can find an xt90 male to xt90 male adapter? They’re extremely hard find for some reason. The only one I can find is on eBay, but it takes over a a month to arrive. There was one on Amazon but the page is gone now. I’m in America, btw.
I could make you one and have it in the mail tomorrow. What size and length of cable do you need?

Dude, that would be awesome! Just a couple inches. I need both ends to be xt90 males because focbox unity comes with a female end for some reason.

Yep, I know the struggle well. PM incoming.

Because under really heavy vibration it would be theoretically possible for a button to change states in either direction. Just harder for it to go from unpushed to pushed, because it takes more energy.

This is where I can’t give you a clear answer. I don’t own one to know.
Hmm, I see. That makes me realize a potential flaw in my idea. If the button is not latched, then the only thing holding the circuit closed is the spring pressure. Even if the vibrations/bumps are not strong enough to make the switch change state, it might be strong enough to momentarily break contact with the NC contact.
Something to test for, I suppose!
Because you don’t want a shallow throw making it too easy to cut power.

Last bit of business before I button everything up…
How to wire this thing up to the DV6?
The DV6 came with a bunch of cables, and I’m sure the right one is in there somewhere, but I don’t know which one it is. Plus, there is a connector on only one end…I thought I was done with the soldering part ;(
And lastly, how does one bind to this? The trigger remote does have a bind button, so that part is self-explanatory… but how do I tell the receiver I am looking for it?
