Main block diagram

For motor controller I used the VESC 75100 connected to my custom receiver of the TecnoFly remote controller. The receiver's processor stores many electric datas on the internal SD Card every second during the ride.
This is very important to figure out the performances or issues on the system but also the improvements of the use of the assist system.

Integration of the system in the board

In this video you can see my solution to mount the system on the dedicated board. In my opinion this is the best solution, much better then foil drive gen2
