Looks like we’ve got another V6 maker other than Flipsky.
Full transparency, here’s the pricing they have.sent…assuming some of the BOM is replaced with cheaper components but they haven’t provided an further pictures to confirm from a glance.
120usd/pcs based on 1-4pcs
10pcs110usd/pcs
Also this just an informative post for those wondering about price without having to reach out and wait a week.
Simply found on alibaba, I have an agent in China who spoke to them directly also to confirm pricing.
Always be mindful of quality though, BOM I’m pretty sure different, flipsky is great example of how it can be made with cheaper parts… Waiting for list of BOM from them and more pictures of the pcb
Well it certainly looks nicer than flipsky’s. The case isn’t way over sized, lol. Very interested to see how these perform. 4WD has always been just too expensive to build, mainly because of the ESC’s, but this would really help! Now if only gear drives weren’t so expensive… Once those are about the same cost as a good satellite setup a 4WD build wouldn’t cost too much extra, aside from maybe more batteries, but those are getting better and cheaper too.
Also, I just remembered that the flipsky HW6 bulk price was like $124, so this could be very similar to theirs components wise.
I like how they call it “FRC vesc 6” so there is no doubt that it’s from another company but still easy to spot that it’s a vesc6. @trampa is prolly going to rip his hair out tho
Oh, freerchobby. Last I got a sample VESC from them, it was a dodgy bit of kit. I’ll wait for the sample units to be throughly beat on before I install it on any of my own boards.
I also have a similar expirence with the VESC 4.12’s. I wouldn’t put over $100 in these without knowing they can make it properly. This company is notorious for cutting corners
Great Point! Definitely get an Escape if you can, totally solid. Now the, flipsky I think was in same trial and error phase as I would say this one seems to be, I mean now that it popped up.
Not entirely 100 % convinced on those flipsky yet either… Time will tell though . I have a feeling these and other v6 versions may be a little less needed when that unity focbox comes out.
If the hype is real…
judged by the look of it , it’s actually not bad, but can it really do 13s though? also they wrote on the description that the model number is VESC 6 really ?
Flipsky has research and design team , both with almost 10years experience. Now they’re ready to release dual ESC in one single PCB base on VESC6.6, They definitely don’t do just copy job. And all the materials used are authentic, which has some comparision pictures in their official web.
