Are you going to be stocking the unity in the states soon so that shipping cost doesn’t influence purchasing for some folks?

Use Unity with MeepoV1’s switch. Change the wiring layout.

I didn’t even need further convincing yet you’ve gone and done it!

Nice work! can you report your findings? did you also see improvements?

I read this thread and thought of using meepo’s switch. It is not going ahead from there. I was predicting that Unity is a strategic product that can upgrade cheap boards. Everyone in Builders will use unity to build high performance boards. But Unity is a good choice for upgrading the cheap board. I think that beginners are good threads to step up.

Would this work with the Meepo AWD?

Hi, could you show us how you connect your hubs to the unity ?

Actually this can be achieved with any VESC based ESC :stuck_out_tongue: Depending on the programming of the orginal ESC there will be no speed increase because its limited by KV but torque will improve a lot.

@onloop I saw this specs about the unity. I was thinking about setting up 70A each motor and a current of 140A from my battery (12s)

Is it okay to use those settings? So can you promise me that I will not demolish the unity with these settings?

Yes but you will need 2 Unitys connected over CANBUS. AWD is more complex but you would have a hill climbing monster.

The standard ESC seems to be limiting speed.

With 2x standard vesc you need to buy a seperate switch and it probably won’t fit inside the case.

Unity is definitely a better option!

I was just asking about this a week or 2 ago and it’s on my list of mods.

Did you use the stock battery on meepo?

When will foxbox unity be available for purchase? It shows “pre-order” on your website. Do you have any dealers in EU?
