maybe in the future vesc can support pwn + dir input, this is used for the force feedback steering wheel project, now i am running a custom firmware that supports pwm + dir but this is an old firmware version, maybe someone can customize the latest firmware
I bought a VESC for an electric skateboard with a 2450KV motor. I have used this on a standard ESC and it has worked fine. However, when switching to a VESC 4.12, I often get kickback when accelerating and the motor force stops the motor. I have tried adjusting the braking, does anyone else know what else I can do to try and prevent the kickback?
Can anyone point me to a VESC controller that is designed for lower current use. My application is 20 amps max. I would like to take advantage of all the features in the VESC controller for my lower power project.
Thanks
Dave
I just bought a VESC 6 and have been playing around with it. I have been modifying the PID controller for a 3800KV motor for days. This is the best result I've got https://imgur.com/a/3JwVKyt
And I don't know if this is smooth enough or it needs more adjusting. Any idea to make it smoother guys?
Here is the motor configuration content (i don't how to upload a file here):
Hello,
I want to install VESC (BLDC ) on my ubuntu bionic because i have a project about driving autonomous car.
But i have some problems because i cannot install BLDC insted i follow those vedder link https://github.com/vedderb and https://mushr.io/hardware/build_instruc....

Hello everyone. My name is Matt and I just joined your forum. Im looking to upgrade the 2in1 controller in my 72v Zero 11x scooter. I would like some suggestions on what model vesc to consider. Here are a few specs...
72v
32ah battery
Dual 1600w hub motors
The oem 45ax2 controller is problematic so If like to replace it with a better performing replacement. I'd like to do 50a to each motor. Throttle and even a screen would also be cool.
Any help and suggestions are appreciated!
Hi Guys
Spent long time to finish my Gokart project , after some issue with single VESC control by PWM , I finally move to Dual VESC 75V 100A
hardware :
13S7P with balancer 60A , 2 x 48V 800W wheel hub
So now , I use CAN bus 125k between front and back or my vehicke
On the front when is a CAN bus "transmitter" I made a brake and accelerate paddle
on tge back - when is a CAN bus "receive" , is connect tto VESC and control what front is sending to the rear
hi all im new to vesc and keep getting the same fault code when doing a foc wizard motor check. The code is ' detection failed . reason: sensor detection failed'
I have had this code on several differant motors and vesc . Any advice?
Hello,
I'm trying to get my motor to run at a specific RPM. I have set up the VESC 4.20HW with 5.0/5.1SW to operate from a PPM/PWM App Config.
I have the VESC tool set properly and can get the motor to start and stop at the push of a button.
the Hardware I'm using:
Arduino Nano - PWM control, Acceleration ramp, timer (60sec)
VESC ESC 4.20
Outrunner sensorless 280kv BLDC Motor
6 cell and 8 cell lithium battery packs capable of up to 60A draw continuous along with a laboratory power supply.
