Why can’t we tune a HobbyWing / LingYi ESC via an phone app with all the settings that are similar to a VESCs tunability (but termed more suitably for laymen like me).

For Hobbywing there is an App but that’s for businesses , not consumers. I know there are some ESC’s they make that is programmable via their Wi-Fi Link Product but that’s not for the skateboard ESC’s.
I’m not even sure if the Ling Yi ESC has a BT module on it like Exway and Backfire’s ESC does.

Stritcly speaking from the Android app perspective that’s a Google store limitation.
Long Time i dis not publish an app on that store so some of the things might have changer but you Can only publish one package version. And if you don’t go throught the store to distibute it you don’t get verified licence so the user has to do “advanced” manipulations to be alowed to install it.
One could have packages with incremental James but that’s a cluster Fuck to maintain

So that you can’t find out some specs where bullshit

But since it’s Android, you could simply install an older package at-will on your own device, if you can find it or make it. (luxuries not available on lower-tier mobile operating systems)
If you really need an older version, you can build it from source if nobody has it saved.

Why can’t the Firefly Nano remote have the ability to connect to multiple receivers?
I don’t feel comfortable using split ppm… Seems to kill VESCs from time to time (someone here who knows about this more than I do?)

Why can’t my VESC 4.12 stop do be a fragile grenade being so close to death by everything you do - Canbus? Better not… any shortage of the phase wires? God beware!
The DRV chip is such a sensitive bit*h!

You should treat those 4.12s as a commodity and assume that it will blow at some point. Better yet, always keep a spare on hand. You never know when you’ll need it
I plan on building like 10 or 15 CheapFOCer2s for all my builds and for testing. Currently only have one board, but in the future would love to do a scooter, bicycle, atv, onewheel. Having bulk ESCs on hand that are cheap will be great because I don’t have to worry about breaking them

Can you recommend a remote with a lifetime (not trip) odometer?
In de DIY world I don’t think there is any.
Only ones with an odometer are Davega and infinity logger (and Metr is working on a stand alone logger that also will have odometer I assume)

Why can’t motors be measured by stator size not can size like drone motors are. Seems a lot more useful imho.
