Thank for the reply.... Considering the BLDC motor nature, I do believe VESC will work on these.

(I chose VESC to build most of the robots because it support DC,BLDC.... I can basically plug every mid-small scale motor I found in the lab and make it work)

However, during the calibration process of VESC on normal BLDC motor, the motor will rotate itself. So in your case, I think the linear motor will move left and right for a little bit.

That might be a problem...? (or maybe not)?  I am not quite sure

If you decided to go-on and test it, please let me know the result!!!!
