Hi All,
I recently got back into using VESC's after a number of years out of the game. I have a very particular application this time around.
I would like to use the current control scheme for most of my operations, however, I would like to switch it into position control when the throttle is brought to zero. To hold the motor in a particular orientation.
I am aware this can probably be done by creating my own app. Is there any existing way of achieving this functionality?
Any insight is welcome!
Thanks!
I am also working on a project where I need to change the control states. There is already a custom app which detects if two sensors are activated and then controls the motor currents to hold the velocity. Maybe I could detect if both sensors are triggered and if not, the custom app can take one of the adc ports to get a remote control signal for accelarating/braking. As for the hardware, I would have to put both, the pin of the remote and the pin of the sensor both to one adc input. I am not sure if this would cause any trouble, yet.
Maybe this post could help a little? :
