Could new Xiaomi Scooter 3 be hacked ?

Hello
I just received my next Xiaomi Scooter 3 and wonder if it is possible to tune it to gain a bit a speed.
So far Scooter 3 is locked up to 25 km/h in the sport mode.
Is there an existing compatible firmware for it ?
Should BT be upgraded first ?
Many thanks for your help,

Though I haven't tried it yet, the Mi Scooter 3 speed limit guide at hardreset.info uses the Pro 2 CFW generator:

Let us know if you're successful!

Well I tried but I haven't even been able to get the Mi Scooter 3 to show up in the "select scooter" list of the Android utility.

I was also unable to get my scooter 3 listed in ScooterHacking Utility even Bluetooth was on.
However, ZIP file can be uploaded with DownG utility, it is able to detect my scooter 3 and upload the file.

Thanks for the info. Did you generate your ZIP file with the CFW Toolkit for Pro 2? I'm curious if that enables cruise control as this function is unfortunately absent in the official Xiaomi firmware.

I see Pro 2 firmware

Is it compatible with xiaomi scooter 3 ?

I tried the firmware V5 on that page :
https://mp365.es/hacktool/mi3/
It flashed successfully but after upgrade i get the 'key' logo lit on the scooter panel and code '42' in red displayed
It don't know what that code means.
The scooter did not run speeder than 25 km/h as original firmware does but every 7s seconds scooter runs and stops again and again.
I tried to flash the firmware back to original as it was availalble on that website but no success, code error stays there.
Any help will be much appreciated.
