    Oh man! you're so good Dado. Nice features added and yeah that status led was really confusing. That duck tape plug is definitely my DIY level 😅 I will do it the exact same way! thanks for all these improvements. Hopefully this will be soon available also for Android. Floaty or VESC tool

    • @surfdado
      @surfdado  9 месяцев назад +1

      just decide based on looks - that's the only difference really. The Pro also has 5 instead of 3 ride heights but they're really not needed - mine is the ADV

    • @surfdado
      @surfdado  10 месяцев назад

      there is, but I wouldn't go the USB route requiring to secure the ST-Link inside the box, instead people have mounted a magnetic debug port connector on the outside of the box making it easily accessible (just remove the footpad) - floatwheel discord has more details

      FloatControl pretty much has voice coaching so it’ll tell you exactly where you’re at above whatever threshold you set. Can tell you speed and/or duty cycle
