I have a (probably basic) question about BLDC motors:
Motor speed is supposedly given by kV * battery voltage. But the ESC determines the motor RPM through pulsing current to the different windings, right?
Is kV*voltage just the max rpm the motor can run at? Or is a motor with too high kV very inefficient at RPM:s much lower than kV*voltage?
I'm confused, grateful for any kind of clarification!
Would a common ebike/escooter throtle work with the 75/300 vesc
here is one that I had in mind

if someone Knows where to buy a better twist throtle I would love to hear that to.

I am using the VESC tool to prototype propellor blades and have been using the app to run motors at a specific RPM which I input. This is my main method of controlling motors.
Hi!
I'm converting a 4000kg (9000 lbs) sailboat from a 12hp gasoline engine to electric propusion. The motor I've selected is the ReVolt RV160-Pro (10kW, 50V BLDC outrunner) and now I'm looking for a good esc to fit.
So, what is a "good enough" option? This is what I'm looking for:
Hello
Apologiies for the length of this post but I hope that my (numerous) questions are sufficiently interesting to attract responses...
hi, I'm going to apply vesc driver in my robot. I want to send control signals on can bus. I saw that a can bus interface on the board, But I don't know what the protocol is like. I'm wondering where can i find any documentation. thanks a lot!!
just discoverd this amazing vesc project and I am interested in the 75V/300A model, I was wondering if it is passouble to use the vesc with a sensorless BLDC motor?
greetings Pelle.

Hi all,
I have only just come across the vesc project and i am very interested in using it for my project.
The issue i have is that the application i wish to use it for has a higher operating voltage ~100-120v but lower current requirement ~20amps peak. Obviously this is not consistent with the VESC spec so i would have to perform some modifications. Due to my limited ability to solder ics with such small terminals i plan to by a unit off the shelf and rework it.
Hello
I would be interested to hear from anyone who has successfully or otherwise used VESC hw/sw for a similar application to this:
Fixed-wing model aircraft (F3a competition) powered by a sensorless bldc motor28 pole, 210 rpm*volt-1, 3kW (this or similar) generating thrust via a 21" diameter propeller weighing only 50-60gm
