I'm working on a dual-VESC balancing project. Is it practical to connect an external IMU to one VESC (running the Balance app) and a Bluetooth dongle from the other one and then tune the Balance app wirelessly via the CAN connection between the VESCs?
I am looking for examples of heavy applications and experience thereof, +200kg vehicle, 15-25kW output. A controller such as a VESC 100/250 seems to be cabable of great things but I have a hard time finding heavy applications. Please advice or link if you know of any, thanks a bunch.
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?
Hi guys. I'm new here :-)
I'm about to integrate a VESC in my scooter conversion project.
For material protection and safety, I'd like to disable the throttle while braking.
Is there such an interface and function in the VESC 100/250?
Thx for your help.
Best

planning to use a regular ebike throttle (hall). Do I connect it to the comm port - ground, ADC1 & VCC (is the vcc 3,3v?)?
the bluetooth module is connected also to the comm port via Tx, Rx, ground & 5v? that means the throttle & bluetooth module share ground. is this OK?
Hi,
Today for the second time I burned a maytech 75_300 with:
12S liions
Motor Hacker Q80 8M 8m
drived via pwm
freq at 50Khz or 60KHz
Ctrl : pid speed no reverse
Current limits set to +-160A
erpm final consign at 100360erpm
no breaking
the pwm from my autopilot increase from low duty to high duty cycle in on step, i'm using a 40 seconds rise up inside the pwm app to have a smooth ramp.
can anyone point me to the place where the blink codes for the VESC are described? My new setup is blinking 5 times red when connecting the HAL sensors and I would really like to know what the error is - in the tool I see no error (Fault: NONE)
Hi,
I'm trying to migrate from castle creation BLDC to vedder Maytech 75_300 FOC but not without any problems. I'm using 2x 12S8P li-ion batteries in // and a hacker Q80 28 motor (kv180, 5500W in burst).
Without blades, it seems working to run to the consign (speed pid without reverse, or current, foc or bldc). But with small air drag test blades an oscillation arrives during the increase and vesc stop abort increase. I need to increase to 105000ERPM. I set the frequency to 50KHz.
Hi, let's say someone (maybe me) made their own VESC based hardware and was so dumb to mess up the pins from the stm32 to the gate driver... so now STM-L -> GateDriver-H and STM-H -> GateDriver-L same for phase U ,V and W.
I don't want to make a new PCB if there is a chance to swap the pins in software or maybe it's sufficient to change the ADC timer from Up to down Count ?
thanks : Harry
