Which remote can replace this one?

Hey, I tried to charge this remote (after not using the skateboard for years) and the charging port broke, the battery is also puffed up. I made this build 7 years ago so I don’t remember the details. It was a simple remote that I modified at the time using 3d printed parts from a project that someone here created.

Can someone point me to a remote I can buy that I can use to replace this one? Preferably that I don’t have to open the board and replace the receiver.

I’m also ok with a nicer remote/receiver combo, but it would be nice to get something that doesn’t require me to reprogram de VESC, only open up the electronics and replace the receiver.

You can see the little black receiver in the picture of the electronics before it was connected, that’s what is in there now.

Thanks in advance for the help.

I can get this remote easily, would that work with the FocBox? EVTSCAN Latest Electric Skateboard Remote Controller, 2.4Ghz VX2 Wireless Remote and Receiver, with Streamlined Designed and Anti‑Slip Wrist Strap, for DIY Electric Skate Board : Amazon.ca: Sports & Outdoors

Seems to be the Flipsky VX2

Id be careful with the battery… puffy battery = no bueno. Dont charge it

It looks kinda like a discontinued “enertion Nano-x” remote. I have a new in-box one but I don’t think you should use it.

I would recommend buying this remote instead:
