Yes, there will be a heat sink above and below.
really nice
so there will be single ones and dual ones?
So letās sum it up:

SuperFOC 6.8 50A Speed Controller (Maytech) based upon the VESC ([Eskating.eu])(https://eskating.eu/product/superfoc-6-8-50a-speed-controller-maytech-based-upon-the-vesc/)
As they seem to me more or less alike regarding specs but vary quite a lot regarding price (70-130ā¬) I wonder, which one to go for in a dual hub motor setup with
- FOC
- 30A continuous and 50A peak on each motor
- 8S voltage
- sensored mode
Or should one go for the dual MakerX ((Link) for sparing the wiring effort?
Thanks and best regards!
vesc 4 based controllers arenāt the best at FOC (except for focbox). (I think they just die after a while) If you are fine with BLDC, go for the makerx. But if you want FOC and are fine with a meh remote, you should get this:
This one has also proven decent when running at half the specified max battery current.
Doesnāt that FSESC have the issue with the SMT caps? I thought the one with the big side mounted caps is better, I think itās this one:
Pretty sure the Plus is the better one, but one of them had a stupid issue yeah. My plus is running fine.
Yea itās probably fine at half current as you said, I guess itās only an issue for people that are actually trying to get the claimed performance out of itā¦
Yes. These are NOT mountainboard ESCs. These are street ESCs and are only reliable at 60-80 battery amps on 63xx motors.
First rule of ESC: NEVER run them at max stated current. run them at half stated current or less. The unity was likely the only exception to this rule.
I have this version, and Iām one of the lucky ones. Works like a charm, though I havenāt pushed it that hard. Massive, though.
Donāt you guys get tired of failing and underperforming escs?
The way I see it buy once cry once.
Not a lot of ethical choice at the moment.
I bought a flipsky esc once. I cried once.
I will continue to send forth the hashtag
#fuckflipsky
Until the day that i die.
This one based on specs, price and the remote combo has everything we need in most of the case.
Still waiting from reviews. Apparently few unites got bought from some community members.
@John-Spintend is the developer
Sold out before my eyes
well then we will know soon something about it. The guy said he made 50 pcs of them so for sure someone will post.
Looks pretty cool havenāt had a chance to do any real testing. Little on the fat side for a single stack unless you cut the enclosureā¦
According to Instagram comments psychotiller has been testing them as well.
Ah Woow! Finally someone got it. I really hope they perform as advertised.
Do you use it in FOC mode oder in BLDC? For how long?
I am a little bit insecure about flipsky as so many of you have reported about defects. But I would use it for 8S and 60A continuous Motor Currents (dual, so 30A each, FOC). So actually far away from its maximum
To be clear, iāve broken every ESC Iāve ever tried, including one unity during beta testing. That one turned out to be ok after it was scrubbed and reflowed, but weāve blown up everything. Including an ARC200.
