Vesc6MK3 stops responding to throttle input

Submitted by idlebear on Fri, 2023-11-17 17:41

Hi there -- I have a Vesc6 MK3 updated to the firmware included with the 6.02 vesc tool release.  The vesc is mounted in a 1/10th scale RC car (based on the f1tenth.com build) in sensorless mode and connected via USB to a TX2 running linux. When I boot the system, everything runs fine and I can drive the car without issue.  However, after a short while the Vesc becomes unresponsive to speed requests. It is still responding to servo requests, so the vesc interface hasn't crashed. 

Problems with 100% throttle input

Hi,

my name is Levin 

I am using an vesc 6.7 Pro with an e-scooter hub motor.I have set the motor in the Vesc software and can also run it via the computer. However, as soon as I use a different input (thumb throttle), I have problems at maximum input. This manifests itself in the way that the motor's speed drops slightly, makes strange noises and negative current peaks of -2.5a are reached. The problem becomes less if I limit the motor current from 50a to 10a. However, that is not my goal. The same problem occurs with another input such as ppm.

Is switching to reverse and giving a bit of current the same is braking?

Hi all, BLDC FOC motor in a project car.  I have current w/reverse button as ADC 1.  While traveling forward, is switching to reverse and giving slight throttle okay to slow?  Is it effectively the same as braking?  

PPM, REWIND and FORWARD in same rotation

Hi,

I convert a Mercury 9.9 to electric.

Propeller direction ist switched with the outboard gear, so the electric motor must spin only forward.

The Throttle should work like in a motorboat, with neutral, forward and reverse.

I am looking for a Setup of the PPM using Centered Control, but in both direction of the Throttle, the Motor should spin forward.

Is this possible?

Thank, for any Help

BATTERY_VOLTAGE_HIGH_CUTOFF_START // CUTOFF_END ?

Submitted by Andy G on Mon, 2023-10-16 18:41

Hi,

Are there still plans to implement "Battery Voltage High Cutoff Start" and "Battery Voltage High Cutoff End" that is, in theory, the exact opposite of the Battery_Voltage_Cutoff_Start // End script that is already implemented?  I realise braking will be less consistent when the battery is >95% full, but I cannot afford to keep buying / repairing VESCs.
