      Here is the wiring to run a Superflux motor in a xr/Plus. The hall wires are unchanged, Only the yellow phase wire is switched with the green. In my experience, the small increase in torque is not worth the extra weight. This mod only works for the XR/Plus and will not work with the GT which requires a lot more motor changes.IMG_7659.png

        Hey man I'm EXTREMELY late to this party, could you send me a little tutorial on how to make this wiring setup? Is there any benifits to using a SF Motor with the stock Onewheel controller and BMS? is there more torque, power ETC.? Thanks in advance! 🤙🤙

          @fluxxpro Late reply, but there is really no benefit with a SF in a stock XR other than a small increase in torque, but a big gain in weight.
          Perhaps if you have an unrepairable stock XR motor and need a replacement motor?

            @lemur Old add with new update. Maybe worth adding a superflux 5-inch motor to a stock XR instead of doing an MTE? Is there a simple way to show how to plug a superflux into an XR controller?

              @danielswam There's no simple way to adapt it to a stock XR as the 5" SF motor uses a motor connector that is only compatible with the Fungineer controller kits.
              You will have to splice the XR Molex connector on or rewire the 5" motor with a XR cable/connector, besides the XR is best left stock as there is no advantage for a 6'' or 5" SF motor in a stock XR.
              The SF motors are best suited for a high voltage/ high dollar vesc build.
