Board Compatibility Guide: Motors, Batteries & Motor ControllersUpdated 5 days ago
Compatibility Guide for Motors, Batteries & Motor Controllers
If you’re upgrading your board or replacing a part, it’s important to make sure everything is compatible. Not all motors, batteries, or motor controllers work across different boards. This guide breaks down which components match which boards.
🔧 Motor Compatibility
3500W Motors
Compatible with:
• Diablo Carbon
• Diablo Bamboo
• Diablo Renegade
These motors are exclusive to the Diablo Series and require the Diablo motor controller and firmware.
3000W Motors
Compatible with:
• Hadean Series
• GTR Series 2
• Renegade (First Generation)
• Stoke X
• Fusion
These motors are used on all modern 3000W platforms and must run with the appropriate motor controller firmware.
1500W Motors (Stoke Series 2 / Onirique)
Compatible with:
• Stoke Series 2
• Onirique
These motors use a different mounting design from earlier 1500W motors.
1500W Motors (GTR Series 1 / Stoke Series 1)
Compatible with:
• GTR Series 1
• Stoke Series 1
These are the earlier 1500W drivetrain motors used before the move to 3000W systems.
1500W Motors (GT Platform)
Compatible with:
• GT
• GTX
• GT ONE
These motors are specific to the original GT drivetrain.
⚠️ Motors are matched to the motor controller firmware. Swapping motor sizes between platforms is not supported.
🔋 Battery Compatibility
GTR Battery
10S4P 504Wh
Used in:
• GTR Series 1
• GTR Series 2
12S2P (10Ah)
Used in:
• Stoke X
• Fusion
• Diablo
• Hadean
12S3P (15Ah)
Used in:
• Fusion
• Diablo
12S4P (16Ah)
Used in:
• Hadean
12S4P (20Ah)
Used in:
• Hadean
• Diablo
⚠️ Even if battery types match, not all boards share the same deck mounts. Always confirm mounting compatibility before swapping batteries.
🧠 Motor Controller Compatibility (EFOC 1.0 vs 2.0)
Diablo MC (EFOC 2.0)
Only works with:
• Diablo Series
Required for 3500W motors and runs Diablo-specific firmware.
Fusion & Stoke X MC (EFOC 2.0)
Works with:
• Fusion
• Stoke X
Configured for 3000W motors.
Hadean & GTR Series 2 MC (EFOC 1.0)
Compatible with:
• Hadean
• GTR Series 2
Not compatible with:
• Diablo
• Fusion
• Stoke X
🔄 Transition to EFOC 2.0
As EFOC 1.0 stock runs out, we are gradually moving all board models to EFOC 2.0 for after-sales support, including Hadean and GTR Series 2 models.

📝 Key Things to Remember
• Batteries may sometimes be shared across models, but motor controllers must always match the motor size
• 3000W motors must use Fusion / Stoke X / Hadean compatible MCs
• 3500W motors must use the Diablo MC
• 1500W motors are specific to their original platforms
You cannot upgrade performance by swapping controllers between models. The firmware is locked to each board type to ensure proper motor operation.
