Description
After a decade of experimenting, myself and Lia worked tirelessly for almost a year to bring to the community a controller box that finally ticks all the boxes.
Features:
- Built-in State-of-the-art VESC with native LED support, beeper, and onboard VESC Express.
- Exceptional cooling due to the anodized aluminum and an IMS (Aluminum base) controller.
- Includes front LED and Status LED in the box.
- A Beautiful and sleek CNCed Aluminum box, anodized to perfection, or a budget-friendly Die-cast box (both options have similar heat-dissipation and have no other differences).
- Strong Polycarbonate see-through lid.
- Built-in Motor connector for Superflux, M20 Gland for battery pack, switchport, and GX-16 2-pin Charge port, along with a Switchcraft equivalent Footpad port that is plug-in compatible with out new footpad and footpad connector, and can also be replaced with any other XR style footpad plug).
- Fits any XR-style frame and rails for the original riding experience.
- Space in the front for a 2S2P split pack, and a handle!
This is a full plug-and-play box with the VESC tested and setup (may require motor calibration and IMU setup via VESC tool). The user has to only open the Lid and connect their preferred battery. Fungineers charger is preferred but other GX-16 style chargers will fit in the charger port.

Customer Reviews
Fungineers sent me a replacement box after mine arrived dead. New box craftsmanship was flawless just like the first one and this one worked. Config. took a while but when all was done, what an incredible board. Rides amazing, powerful but smooth. Highly recommended!
Thank you Ernesto, we appreciate the feedback and happy to see you back on your board! Sorry, weird things happen with electronics sometimes but we are here and we got your back :)
I purchased the Thor 300 Black/ Grey Die Cast complete controller box as part of my X7 build kit. As soon as I opened it, everything looked high quality. I love that they now include the mud flaps in the box. Installation based on Jayden's video was smooth. The head lights aren't the brightest, but they get the job done. I am very happy, especially with this being my first VESC build.
I have ridden around 100 miles and so far so good.
Regarding shipping, I live in North Carolina and it took about 20-25 days to receive.
Hands down the best controller you can get. Smooth, powerful and I have not been able to over heat this thing. The LED module works perfect. Could not be happier with anything else. Very well built and just amazing. Great job fungineers!
So I ordered two of these. The original one that I purchased was a red CNC box with the Thor300. The box was professionally made and looks great. The Thor300 that comes with it is one of if not the best controller on the market. It has plenty of room for a split pack if you decide to go that rout too. I had two issues with mine though. First one was I had a flexible front footpad initially and that cause the controller box lid to crack and break in multiple spots. So do not get a flexible footpad if buying this box. I would like to see Fungi develop a lid that is stronger but still allows you to see the status bar. The 2nd issue was the back of my front light bar was somehow hitting the inside of my box. It rubbed to the point that it started to almost weld the one corner. I ended up putting stuff in between the handle indention and the front light bar to keep it from touching which solved the issue. I ended up buying a 2nd cast box from Fungi for two reasons. Fungi addressed both issues fast with me and sent me replacement parts. And because they just work so good. The second box had not had the issue with the light bar and I have their front footpad so I haven't had the issue with the lid cracking (yet). If I was able to give this a 4.8 star rating that is what they would get because of how the resolved the issues. But they do need to figure out a better lid for future boxes. I would also suggest saving your money and going with the cast box, unless you have rails where you can actually see the awesome CNC boxes. Hope this helps you guys.
This controller box and board setup are in my opinion the best options on the market. The lights are to be seen only, they don’t project much light if at all. You’ll need a headlamp if you want to ride it at night.
