This is different though, you’re not electrically connecting two esc’s together. On a 3-phase motor if the timing is wrong you could have a dead short.
Weird as I’ve heard of it being done successfully

Unless I’m missing something your link has two answers that say its not possible.
Yea. You’re not missing anything. I’ll post one above of a success but I guess the escs each have a single mcu
Yeah, a 6 phase motor could be driven by 2 escs theoretically since the phases are isolated. In a 3 phase motor, the two escs would share phases and could short if the timing isnt perfect.
shoulda asked this here.
For everyone that hyped thinking he had them in stock, this is just custom [beta] firmware based in FW 5.03. Still no stock
Third batch is coming soon.
Raiden-7 is in stock now.

A transparent version is released, limited availability.
Ordered already, thanks bro
Oh man Im getting nintendo 64 transparent edition vibes from this, hope its still around when payday comes! beautiful!
Can anyone comment on these. How do you like them? I went ahead and ordered a pair of the R7’s. I’ve been looking for a HV VESC and I really like the specs + design aesthetics of these units. Now I just have to figure out how to top mount two of them within a small footprint. I’m thinking I’ll put them back to back against a thick, piece of aluminum, pocketed on each side with 3d printed caps. I mean, it would be bad practice to have different length phase wires, would it not?
Glad these don’t have an anti-spark switch built in, until someone makes socketed components you can easily swap out without soldering. I’ve been wondering if that’s possible. Isn’t it the resistor that tends to go bad in an as circuit? What if you made the resistor socketed? Just give it some screw terminals. Or, is it more complicated than that?
phase wires with different length are fine.
For better cooling, It’s better to mount esc on just one side of the aluminum plate.
Where can I find the ZESC/Raiden updates to the VESC source code so I can build my own firmware mods?
Thank you, I assumed only the binaries were available there. The makefile worked perfectly for me.
Have some laptop/pc style rads popping out of the enclosure, would be a first for sure and kinda sick if done properly
I’ve been so tempted to make a water cooled build. Was even looking at rads. Wouldn’t be that hard.
