How do you wire one 5V push button power switch to two VESC 6 MIIIs?
I'm guessing you only wire the single power button's 5V and GND to one VESC and then splice the power button's C1 and NC into both VESCs? ...or maybe the GND also gets spliced into both VESC's, or what is the correct way?
Thanks!
I got an error while running vesc_tool_2.00. I downloaded vesc_tool_free_linux.zip on jetson tx2, and tried to run the files, but it failed. Is there any solutions?
nvidia@tegra-ubuntu:~/vesc-tool$ ./vesc_tool_2.00
bash: ./vesc_tool_2.00: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
nvidia@tegra-ubuntu:~/vesc-tool$ sudo bash ./vesc_tool_2.00
./vesc_tool_2.00: ./vesc_tool_2.00: cannot execute binary file
Is it possible to access the Vesc terminal over USB with some other application? Some of my users are overwhelmed with Vesc-tool.
Thanks!

As a Trampa ESK8 owner with two VESC 6 MKIII's, I'm interested in enabling the power-on switch and hibernate mode capability...can someone guide me to instructions/manual for setting this up? I'm aware it would require a 5V switch (any recommendations of existing button switches?) and it looks like MAYBE you connect the switch to the CAN GND and COM Switch but it doesn't really say if that's where the button switch is connected or if you just bridge those to enable the option?? And then how are both the switch and hibernation modes enabled in the firmware?...is there
hello guys
im not very good with programing
I built for my son a custom ride on car powered by flipsky vesc 6.6 plus with 2 x 3250w motors . it runs on 24v batteries for now
i need some help programing the vesc. i probably need a custom firmware or something
the car needs to run PPM and ADC for safety reasons or at least switch betwin them without having to program the input every time thru a switch
Can any one help me with this? i am happy to pay
i think someone over on the skateboard forum is requesting some mods to the current control mode and i think it does make a bit of sense but requires some tweaks.
basically they still want current control, but when they apply 50% of throttle they don't want the motor to turn more than 50% of no load speed, but they also want the motor to coast as they release the throttle.
i think it can be done in current control if the % throttle not only sets the motor current command, but also sets a limit to the duty cycle at the same % as the throttle.
does vesc support step/dir to control the motor?I want to build a CNC machine.thanks.
I've been working to implement OTA update for my custom hardware which has Arduino connected to UART. The Arduino has pre-loaded VESC firmware .bin image. I figured out most of the communication protocol and I can send commands to VESC and receive data back. The communication protocol has two packet types: below or above 256 bytes. The package type and length of the package is identified in the header of the packet and CRC is added to the end.
Hello All,
Like many others, I'm going down the path of converting a car alternator to give me a cheap but chunky BLDC to drive a kart.
Alternators are great for this: big solid frame, bearings and shaft, cooling fans. Just all-round heavy duty and built to last.
So far I did a quick proof of concept with a BMW/mini alternator rated to 110A and it was no problem at all, spinning up beautifully on a small RC ESC I had. With this quick success, I'm ready to move forward and build a heavy duty VESC to drive it hard and see what it can do.
what is the highest battery current the 6.6 firmware will allow? (per motor)
