There is one shunt. It’s a big hunk of wire. I just globbed solder on it. I would not recommend it, as all of the controllers I modified in that way are now dead. Leave them stock for now.

Thanks for the update. How have you upped the current limit of the controller? Did you just lower the shunt resistance by adding extra solder to it? And how does the shunt look like, one wire, four wires etc.??? I have just ordered two of these controllers so that I can start my build and would like to upgrade them.

But they’ll last a race or two.

Or will you need to replace them constantly?

Also, got a Power Wheels body to drop onto it? :)
