Trampa website? I got 2 6+ that shit the bed the moment i tried to ride them.
Meanwhile maker-x dual hit 500km around this week without any problems.
I sent the vescs for repair on 12 may and it’s radio silence from trampa since then :frowning:

Costco typically sells 99% for dirt cheap. It really doesn’t make sense to buy it from anywhere else.

Ok so when I do motor detection, nothing happens and I get bad detection recieved. This is with the “new” vesc tool @Trampa



Yeah why is the resistance so high lol. Frank, there’s no way I did anything for this to happen

the default detection current in vesc-tool is now 20amps??

or were you increasing the i value because detection was failing at lower current levels?

It automatically puts 20a lol

Shouldn’t it be only 5a?

for the motor sizes we use, that sounds more reasonable to me. but what do i know? :man_shrugging:t5:

The working vesc detection

You should use the wizard, since there you can select a motor size and then the detections amps are matched to the approximate stator size.

Dude, I’ve done that, I did the detection and the resistance is absurd.

@Trampa

Then there is a HW issue.

So what am I supposed to do now, I asked for help lol

It needs to be fixed by some one doing VESC repairs.
You could take the PCB out of the housing and inspect it visually.
Sometimes it is possible to see physical damage.
