Remote connected on the uart port on master vesc and bluetooth module on uart slave vesc: can or canāt do?
Nah those are like 1A rated.
Similar plastic one that shows rating.
Best to just find one that has a current rating at or above your desired charge rate.
I bought these the other day. All metal and 10A rated.

Hey All, Iām currently waiting for all my parts to arrive and been seeing tons and tons of folks use Metr logs to aid in troubleshooting. I feel like this would be a very wise purchase to make as a new builder.
My question: what is the difference between Metr Pro and Metr Pro Unity? Is it just the small form factor that allows the unity to fit inside the enclosure? Iām in for a purchase of two NeoBox V6ās and curious which of the two Metr options would be best for this ESC as well as any additional information you think I need to know about Metr. Thanks!

if youāre purchasing neoboxes, you want the metr pro, not the metr pro unity

yep can do. Connect them via Can and you are good to go. Make sure to set your āApp settingsā to UART on both vescs

Thank you!
Itās a dual vesc, i assume itās already internally connected?
Thanks for the link! Definitely going through this thread now.
Followup question though, do most folks who have Metr use it to setup/change their ESC config settings over manually configuring in the VESC software?

it depends on the vesc. Some do it internally, some still need a canbus cable.

if you say soā¦ Iāve never found a fukkin plastic 5.5x2.1 female panel mount charge adapter rated higher than an ampā¦
Iām not rigidā¦ or steadfastā¦ you can use $1 charge port on your multi-hundred dollar boardā¦
I really donāt careā¦
I use 10amp rated adapters for EVERY boardā¦ fukk ya get like 5 for $10buxā¦

Thanks for the Intel- Ordered one! This sub sure is dangerous. Longer I stick around the lighter my wallet gets
Success! I guess it helps to plug in to CHANNEL 2 on the Mini remote receiver. Duh.
Guess Iām sticking with what works for these Maytech 4.12 singles: FW 3.38 and VESC Tool v0.94 .
Since Iām new to all this VESC business I guess Iāll try out BLDC and FOC sensorless before hooking up the sensors. Figure I will learn better by feeling & experiencing the differences.
Q. What would be one convincing reason to motivate me to upgrade to newer Firmware ?
