Since v4 is almost a carbon copy of the focbox, is it safe to assume that there is no connector installed on the SWD terminal on the PCB?

I find this port very useful.

Yes, I have those. My inquiry was whether theses boxes came connectors already installed. :call_me_hand:t4:

Awesome thanks Jeff! Super excited to get mine!

I’m glad i went with the v6 version.

So far i’ve only used 4.12 vescs and yesterday i tested my first ever v6 (v)esc (a flipsky v6.6) and it was suuper smooth compared to the 4.12.

I’m happy to have a smooth ride soon.

to anyone one in the UK who received their order, just wondering what the import-fee damage was? … just ordered 2 v4’s last nite

We declare at minimum value allowed for UK so should be no duty.

Been £15 for last few years as fare as I paid

Royal Mail charge me £8+20% tax +20% of value declared including postage cost

Edit

From .gov website as been £15 sins 2011 9years

£15.01 item
+£3.01 vat
+8 handling fee
+1.60 20% vat of the handling fee
I often get away with not paying the postage tax depending how thay declaim the value.

Extra £12.61

Will this go up or down with no deal brexit next December :man_shrugging:
