[OT] Increase torque on DC brush motor

Submitted by Riccio on Mon, 2022-03-28 19:32

Hi guys, I'm sorry if I'm off topic you can delete the post if it not useful for the community. I want to ask a stupid question from a noob like me.

If I have a brush DC motor, in my case a MY1020 500W, is it possible to increase torque of the motor, in particular stall and low rpm torque (high RPM are useless in my application), replace the magnets with a greater number of it and with a strong performance material like neodymium?

I think that now are in ferrite. The number of teeth in the motor are twenty and magnets are four.

Limit battery voltage during regen

Submitted by f.damien12 on Mon, 2022-03-28 12:40

Hello,

My motor is used to make sometime big regen.

My battery owns a BMS and as a result, I absolutely need to take care to not make the BMS trips, otherwise I will burn the VESC (because braking with battery disconnected generates overvoltage).

How to prevent regenerating if battery voltage is too high ? Example : the BMS will trip at 42,5V. To get a safety margin, I want the VESC not doing regen if voltage is greater than 41,5V.But I want to be able to discharge.

1) How to implement this behaviour ?

Cant connect to Flipsky 75100

Hi All,

My first post.. First VESC, too. I've hooked my Flipsky 75100 to my computer (and battery and motor), and downloaded VESC Tool.  When I try to autoconnect, I am told "Could not autoconnect. Make sure that the USB cable is plugged in and that the VESC is powered."  My baud rate is set to 115200.. What am I doing incorrectly?
