@lia ill take a look then!

LOAFFETTE

@lia actually, could I use the stock BMS and battery with the OWIE chip mod?

Lia

@loaffette I believe you can but it only works as balance only with none of the usual safety features.

Update:

Ordered the Ubox, now I'm trying to figure out wiring. I'm keeping the connectors the same, which means I need to figure out the pinout of the hall and footpad sensor. Found out that pin 1 and 2 are possibly power, but I can't locate the power and ground.
For hall, I have no idea which pin goes to what.

I'm hoping that someone can point me somewhere that will give me the answer.

NotSure

@loaffette be careful.

LOAFFETTE

@notsure I will!

Lemur

@loaffette The XR foot pad circuit is opposite from vesc. hall sensors is the same , your vesc will configure that. First pture is footpad circuit and second is hall.

LOAFFETTE

@lemur thanks for the pic!

I'm assuming the bottom picture, red is voltage, black is ground, but I'm botnsure what the other wires are or where they plug into

Lemur

@loaffette Yes, red is 5v, black is ground and the other 3 are hall sensors (blue, yellow, green). Color on the hall sensors wires doesn't matter on a vesc controller and plug into the vesc hall 1,2,3.

LOAFFETTE

@lemur got it!
One more thing: I'm assuming the yellow, green and blue wires are the hall, right?

Lemur

@loaffette Yes

LOAFFETTE

@lemur thank you!
You and Lia are lifesaves!
