Yep I use Odrive daily. The counter example is the Prusa 3D printer, which successfully competes with clones. Perhaps the complexity of assembly and resulting quality differences are more significant for 3D printers versus PCBs. Also Prusa has stated that he is quite proud of the clones. It seems that Odrive did not find success in the fully open source realm, but of course this is new territory. I’m trying to start an open source hardware project and we’re going to try to form a non profit and seek philanthropic donations to fund engineering. That’s how lots of open source software projects work.
