trying to find a suitable controller for an electric motorcycle I build.
Installed A Golden Motor 108 (quite similar to a MY 1020 motor).
it's an Inrunner (approximately 110KV), on a 48V.
Votol and Kelly did not synch with the motor well for some reason.
anyone have experience or estimation as to how well and smooth this combo will be?
I just watched Benjamin's tuning video https://cloud.vedder.se/index.php/s/jpm9Soiq68HBbdw and learned a lot.
But there's something I have been wondering all along: Why use sensorless mode when the motor has sensors?
In my case, it's a Golden Motor HPM5000 which I imagine was originally intended to be run with trapezoidal communication. As such, it has 3 Hall sensors.
We're trying to control the VESC Duty Cycle via CAN.
The controller responses perfectly as expected, until big input changes happen and the controller starts to oscillate and continue to output maximum Duty Cycle.
In this example we limit the Duty Cycle input data to send out a maximum of 81000, corresponding to 81%.
This image shows it follows the maximum 81%, until rapid changes happen and the controller outputs 95%, the absolute maximum?
I'm struggling to run a brushless motor via my VESC 4.12 controller in speed control, however, this was all working fine a few months ago. Now, when I command a speed via vesc tool GUI, the motor just grinds and I get the current/RPM sensor data linked below. When I tried to update the FOC parameters, during the process, the motor is spun up beautifully with no problem. Can someone explain how that might be, and/or help me figure out how to get speed control working again on my controller?

I don't see any type of setup process to do position control in any of the forum posts, Can someone please post and document the steps to do position control from vesc tool?. Many Thanks
VESC 6MKIV suddenly will no longer turn on. When the power switch is pressed it lights up blue as expected but only the red LED flashes once. The blue LED never turns on. Any ideas on how to trouble shoot?
I seem to be hitting some sort of unknown limiter with battery current at 150 amps. In the second to last test in the video below (at 8:55 in), the thing just stops at 150 battery amps. Motor amp limit is 320, battery amp limit is 220 and absolute max is 380:
Hello everybody and thanks for such an outstanding project!
I am a novice DIY making my first efoil and new VESC community.
Recently, I configured and ran the three default "experiments" on my brushless sensorless motor (no load/on bench):
Can someone point me in the right direction to start troubleshooting undervoltage fault code?
I get the motor spinning with remote but intermittent fault codes. Not using a BMS.
Motor: Brushless Filipsky 65161 100KV
Input PWM: Maytech Eskate Remote VESC MTSKR2005WF V2
ESC: Firduo HL200 75V 200A ESC
Vesc tool: version 3.01
Configs: Ran motor and input wizard (PWM Current no reverse with break), adjusted motor poles to 6, set battery cutoffs for 14s9p lipo
Hello,
What is the maximum reporting frequency of eRPM over CAN ?
