XRC owner thinking about VESC (X7 / GTV / GTFO)… Worth it?

XRC owner thinking about VESC (X7 / GTV / GTFO)… Worth it?

I’ve had my XRC since April last year (~500 km) and it’s been flawless, but I’ve been getting the upgrade itch.

I mostly ride asphalt (cruising/commuting), so nothing too crazy.

Trying to figure out:

Is it even worth upgrading if my board still works?

What do you actually gain from going VESC?

I keep seeing the Fungineers X7 pop up everywhere and it seems like the go-to VESC board now but there’s also the option to VESC my actual XRC with a GTV or a GTFO.

What are the differences between these 3 options (GTV, GTFO, or sell my XRC and buy an X7)?

Would I even benefit from the extra power?

Or should I just keep riding my XRC and stop thinking about it.

Appreciate the input!
