Anyone developed a 120V, dual VESC yet? If not, I'm willing to fund a development of one, that i need for my new e-scooter prototype or for mutual/public good. All interested experts or enthusiasts, please PM me to talk details.
Hello,
I am having issues in driving big motors with VESC BLDC firmware and IGBT.
Hi.
I'm looking for a VESC which can pull 2kW, but at 12V for short perioods (2-3mins)
The VESC mkV has 100a continous and 120a burst, but sounds like this won't be beefy enough.
There are chinese VESC based that say 200a, but after doing research i don't believe they will pull the current required.
How about the VESC 75/250~?
This can pull the amps required but only shows support for 14v minimum.
I am having an issue where I am running my motor off a 40V Ryobi battery and using a potentiometer to control the speed of the motor. When I am monitoring the VESC tool for check the RPM, I see that there are spikes every 15 seconds which reduces the speed (-50 from the regular speed) but the motor is back to its normal speed after a seconds to two. I checked it with 2 different fully charged Ryobi batteries and I am having the same issue. I am using VESC MKV6, Ryobi battery 40V 4Ah for my application.
I will post the images shortly from the vesc tool
First off, I need to mention that I do not have a genuine Axiom HW. Out of pure curiosity, I flashed the FW to a general purpose STM32F405 board which I've made.
I worked my way around the few fault codes that the VESC was spitting out and hooked up the SIN/COS signals from the ME1304. As the encoder of the motor uses a 5V supply, the voltage levels are not compatible and need some level shifting. For this, I used a differential amplifier build around an OPAMP. With the circuit, the SIN and COS signals have a DC offset of 1,65V and an amplitude of about 2Vpp.
Hi guys.
Do you think if the 80100 KV220 (7kWt) generates 31v at 6000 RPM as alternator being directly connected to an ICE, a VESC is still capable of regenerating and charging a 10S (40V) LiPo battery?
In theory, I guess YES. What about practice?
Cheers, Andrew
Hello all members,
I suspect problems on start up on my VTT motorisation with the internal current limitations..Has the VESC 4.20 50A ESC internal current limitations? and can we increase the 50A current if yes?
thanks
I blew up a few VESC 4.12 and finally decided to repair them. The chip originally is a DRV8301 but there are none in stock anywhere, so I replaced it with DRV8302.
A couple had burnt traces so I only managed to revive 3 of them. When I run them they all behave similarily throwing a FAULT_CODE_ABS_OVER_CURRENT
I get this issue even if I just turn the motor by hand. Generic 6374 motors.
Tried reflashing them, several times, but still same issue.
I am using a remote control receiver which is hooked up to the ADC of the VESC MKV6. The remote has a power on/off, up(to increase the speed) and down button (to reduce the speed). Basically I am using the remote to control the speed. I am also using a momentary switch to auto power off and I have set the timer to 1 min. With the power on/off i am able to turn on/off the motor. But when I am using the switch to auto power on the system, the VESC cuts off the speed to the whole system disabling the motor to startup when I press the power button on the remote.
