From the project

EV motor controller with space to have customizable electronics and be easy to repair and build.

Note: 'main' branch is under development, there is a change to use KiCad as compared to v0.5.2 (current HEAD of feature/v052, i.e. git SHA1 - e55e314)

The target for this EV motor controller is to power small EVs like EBikes or EScooters like Xiaomi M365, and offer better customizability and repairability.

Easy to build and repair DIY**: It uses DC-DC modules, a development board instead of an uC chip, SMD passive components are all 0805 or bigger, and ICs are SOIC8 or SOIC14. No fine pitch components.
