Maybe you bought a Onewheel GT and realized that if your board breaks, you're up a creek without a paddle. Maybe you have a Meepo Hurricane, and want to tinker, and have heard people mention that putting a VESC in it would do something. What even is VESC? Is it an ESC? Is it firmware? Is it the answer to all of our problems? Well, maybe. This video tries to answer some questions and clear some things up regarding a growing interest in certain niche PEV communities. Whether you're an eskate rider or have seen 30mph riding on a one wheeled board, this video hopes to be a primer for Vedder Electronic Speed Controllers, and how they may become beneficial for you.
