I got an ABS_OVER CURRENT fault code while braking:

UART working great at low current, terrible at high current

Hello everyone,

I am using two VESC6 units; each communicating via UART with its own serial port to a custom microcontroller setup of mine. (two VESCs hooked up to UART 5 and 6 on my controller)

Before using this UART communication I was using PPM + CAN to send these commands. Everything worked amazing besides the fact that I need to control these motors separately. When I switched to UART, Everything works great at low speeds. As soon as I try to accelerate heavily in the slightest bit it starts cutting out every 10-100 milliseconds.

PPM Output unavailable, or not functional - Vesc6.4

We have previously been using the vesc 4.12 with the custom firmware for outputting PPM signal to use with an external steering servo, but after moving to the vesc6.4, it seems like the hardware does not output the ppm signal, even after flashing with the firmware. We have verified that there is no signal output through connecting a scope between the signal and GND pin, without any result.

Is there any reason why this should not work?

VESC 6 connection issue

Hi everyone,

I recently got 2 beautiful VESCs 6. One of them works properly since I updated the firmware following the recommendations I red in this post  but I can't get the second working properly. 

When I power it ON, only the blue led shines steadily, the VESC doesn't appear as a "VESC-COMx" in the connection tab, and the FW update doesn't works.

May anybody give my a push so that I could get it working?

Thx!

Hi guys, some of You may know me from electric-skateboard.builders forum from my thread (http://www.electric-skateboard.builders/t/diy-trampa-long-35-e-mtb-dual-vesc-six-sensored-emax-gt5345/2474)

My board came through a long evolution to finally become what it is now, ultimate overlanding-offroading machine. Thanks Benjamin!

hi

trying to make hybrid engine motor 

rewounded u12 motor(270kv now)

i need to start engine(vesc works like a starter) i need to generate power (vesc works like generator) and i need to help engine(vesc works like e helper)

generator ok and helper ok 

with start is some problems(in bldc mode i set 60-80 motor amps and it starts 9from10 times but if i set higer it glitching )(i dont use halls(too many weak points in halls))
