Hello,
I designed a custom ESC based on the 60_mk6 minus a few features. I am trying to build the latest firmware, but am running into issued when following the steps on the fit repo readme. I'm running windows 10.
The choco install and "choco install make" ran with no issues. I did not use an elevated powershell, but my user accout does have admin privleges.
The issues start when I try and run "make arm_sdk_install" Here are the results:
PS C:\Users\ttyle\vscode_projects\vesc\bldc> make arm_sdk_install

make: *** [C:/Users/ttyle/vscode_projects/vesc/bldc/make/tools.mk:40: arm_sdk_install] Error 2
Running it again results in just the last three lines being repeated. Does anyone know what might be causing this issue, or any workarounds? All compiling instructions I've found online seem to only apply to the older version 5 firmware.
I don't even need to make any major edits to the firmware, I just need to change the current sense and phase voltage sense scaling, so if there are any ways to edit that without recompiling custom firmware I'd appreciate it. I should even be able to run the 60_mk6 firmware safely since I copied the MCU pinout exactly, but I dcan't find any binaries for it. I tried archiving/downloading that firmware via the VESC tool, but I have no idea where the file was saved to my PC.
Any help is appreciated!
