Description

The assembly is easy and requires only basic tools such as an Allen key, scissors, and tweezers. A pack of gummy bears is included. You can treat yourself with some after finishing each part of the assembly. 🙂 Assembly instructions.

DAVEGA X is an advanced on-board telemetry device for VESC® based speed controllers. It comes in an aluminum enclosure with several color options to choose from.

What cable length do I need?

For exact measurement, take a string and route it from the center-point of the front truck mounting holes to your ESC UART port. Then add 10 cm to the length.

A good quick estimate for 2WD setups with a bottom mounted enclosure is to measure the distance between the deck nose and the rear of the enclosure.

The 100 cm cable is long enough for most setups.

Water resistance

If assembled correctly, the enclosure does not leak around the screen protector or the buttons. While we do not recommend purposely using the DAVEGA X in rain conditions, if you get caught in the rain, continuing to ride for a few minutes to reach the nearest dry place is OK. After any exposure to a heavy rain, we recommend that you detach the DAVEGA housing from the board while you are letting the board dry.

Made in the Czech Republic

Most of the DAVEGA X parts, including the aluminum enclosure, cables, and glass screen protectors, are manufactured in the Czech Republic.

The electronics are hand-soldered and well tested in-house.
