Vesc 6 MKIV ?

Hi !

Just found out that the vesc 6 MKIII was replaced by the vesc 6 MKIV. Any clues what the differences between the two are ?

The IMU is different. MK IV uses the BMI 160 and therefore needs a different FW.

I recently bought the VESC6 from Trampa boards and it says v6.8 on the housing. I wonder where I can get the schematics for v6.8? On this site you can only get VESC_6_plus.pdf where it says "v6.5". Benjamins git repo doesn't contain VESC6 schematics at all, if I'm correct. Yet Trampa boards sells v6.8 VESCs and you can also find v6.8 boards from several chinese sources as well.

So where do they get their v6.8 designs from?
