Hi developers,
I am trying to build a Racing car with VESC6 mk5. My team hopes to control the car with CANBUS commands to achieve angular and velocity control. I have trouble controlling a servo (angular controller) with PPM output signals. Is there any way of using CANBUS commands to control PPM output signals, or do I have to develop the code myself? If anyone knows how to do this, please help!!!
Best,

You can script that, but you need to write up some code. Also note that bigger servos would need a separate power supply and you should use an opto-decoupler in between the VESC 6 and the servo in order to avoid ground loops.
Can you please elaborate on it a little? Do I need to change the source code of Vesc and flash it? Is that what you mean
