Hi, I have a VESC clone(flipsky 4.20) controlling an RC car, I need to be able to send commands via a computer to it through USB. I will use the virtual com port interface. Is there a library that does that available?

Hi Broski,
So far the most updated version for pyhton to be able to control VESC would be pyvesc-fix 1.0.3.
Honestly, I have been waiting for a better version since PyVesc 1.0.5. I haven't tried at all pyvesc-fix 1.0.3, but I just know it is the most updated one, I am currently about to try it hoping it really fixed a lot of the issues with PyVesc 1.0.5.
In case you find this useful or you find a better library to be able to send commands for the VESC please let me know, I am currently finding the best way to get some python commands to work on VESC and I am praying that pyvesc-fix will do the trick.
Thanks and I will be waiting your answer.
Best,
Eric Irabien Lozano
Hi Eric,
Did you find anything better than pyvesc-fix 1.0.3.? I have tried it on a Raspberry Pi 5 and am seeing a lot of differences between it and the latest C++ for the VESC Tool.
Ideally, I would like to write the code in Python, but it's looking more and more like either writing a Python library or using C++.
Do you have any thoughts?
