Answer the question…
@Kug3lis: I think they are a Antispark. vesc 4.12 doesnt have 3 Shunt
But for what are all these JST Connectors? there is at least one Con more than at the VESC 6 from HammerFrank
Yeah then it would explain that JST on the bottom connector. Plus all those zener/cap/resistor next to it would explain anti spark switch… But still based on size I guess its the same mosfets for motor phases…
They all are GPIO, PPM, CAN, SWD, NRF, HALL and bottom would be button

They are for antispark apparently
On the otherside there is 12 mofsets

Hi, sorry so late to reply, the 3 mosfets you see on top are belongs to spark switch, 12 mosfets welded behind the on the other side of the picture esc6. and capacitors will not be damaged by vibrations because we are ultimately soldered, not glued.
So this has an anti spark switch built into it?
Do you have a pic of the waterproof case with this in it?
Hey how is your ESC coming along?
Take it from those with experience. They will vibrate loose if you are only using solder, unless the fit with the case is very precise.
There have already been similar designs where capacitors are essentially only supported by solder and not a combination of solder and PCB running across the cap + glue. Designs without additional support suffer from caps vibrating loose over time.
Not saying this to bash your product, hope you’ll reconsider the design. Reliability is important, our lives depend on part on the electronics we use.

I don’t remember a single story in which soldered caps came loose. Got a link to a topic?
There you go. Follow the crumbs. Besides current vesc6 based escs, it also happens with the Chinese eBay esc. Stewii fixed it with hit glue, personally a bigger fan of how the focbox solves the issue. The caps are supported by the PCB.
If its just the caps that could possibly come loose I’ll get the cheap vesc and do the hot glue myself.
What about Vanda Electronics? or any other? isnt’ there a Chinese manufacturer (cheap) that’s doing the upgrades from the 4.12? I don’t know what they are but a couple doubled caps and stuff and supposedly more reliable in foc. Are companies cheaping out? I thought through the last years with trial and error it was realized how to make the 4.12 reliable. Aren’t any companies doing it?
this flysky vesc looks nice. I mean I like the plug (wouldnt know what else to look for). @JohnnyMeduse you work for another place and are maybe biased but it seems everyone who knows about these things work for enertion but what do you think of the state of vescs out of china these days? anything look promising?
I haven’t done much testing to make sure but it seems the focbox makes the motors run quieter than a set of older 4.12 vescs. does that make sense?
Of course, easy fix. There will be plenty of people who will purchase this and be unaware of the issue. Imagine what could happen to them if their vesc starts malfunctioning during a ride.

Where can we pre-order these?
From me, can order Esc6 without alumnium case now, but with case after 20 May.
Esc6 without alumnium case, whats the money number ?
