Controling the Vesc via Uart and Matlab?

Submitted by Michael Hamm on Mon, 2022-01-24 16:47

Hello everybody,

I want to control the Vesc via Matlab over Uart. Does anyone have some tips for me or example code that helps me getting started? 

I'm searching the whole day for existing solutions but i didn't found anything helpful, at least in my eyes. Thank you for your support!

Connecting AMT203 to Flipsky 4.20 ESC

Submitted by kgeo0003 on Mon, 2022-01-24 06:44

Hi everyone, 

I recently purchased an AMT203 absolute position encoder and want to connect it to a Flipsky 4.20 ESC equipped with VESC firmware.

I took inspiration from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CcqD5sw90U&t=190s&ab_channel=BenjaminVe...

Doing some research, I found this wiring diagram and it seems the best option. If anyone has any experience with this, any assistance would be much appreciated! Thanks very much. 

Maximum Motor RPM will not reached

Submitted by Skyver on Sun, 2022-01-23 10:53

Hello,

for a new project i decided to use BLDC motors, this is the first time i work with BLDC motors and now i can't get any further.

I set up the motors and input with the wizard as described in many videos.

I use a Flipsky 6384 190KV with Flipsky Mini FSESC4.20.

At 44V and 190KV the motor should make 8360 RPM?

I measured the RPM and the motor is only making about 2500 revs.

In the most of the videos mention that incorrect settings can destroy the VESC, I don't want to work with try and error here.

MOSFET failure and replacement, stormcore 60d

I'm hoping I might find some answers or help to this issue here on this forum. I hope this is the right place to ask. The MOSFET in question is labeled mcac80n06. I've tried to source the original chip but as with most transistors it's extremely hard to find them. I've tried contacting the original manufacturer but no response. 

Anti cogging, suppressing torque ripple?

Submitted by Alistair Goodman on Wed, 2022-01-19 11:33

Hi guys, 

I am using my VESC and BLDC motor as a variable brake, and need smooth operation at low speeds, however due to the torque ripple of the motor I am experiencing some problems.  

I am wondering if anyone has looked into or used any anti-cogging algorithms like those discussed here https://hackaday.com/2016/02/23/anti-cogging-algorithm-brings-out-the-best-in-your-hobby-brushless-motors/ ?
