I am doing a project with the VESC for school and I am trying to reduce the harmonics through "Phase Correct PWM," which is when the pulse is always in the center of the period, as opposed to the start of ach period (as shown in this article
Building a diy electric trike to pull a small camper trailer. Using flipsky motor controllers that are typically made for smaller motors with higher rpm than their current application. I have gotten the cart to work without shutting itself off, but that has been by reducing the current and erpm to a level that will not pull the trailer. The motors have enough power to pull the weight, but the controllers don't like it.
Hi, currently, I am using the VESC Tool to configure my motor. When I set my RPM to 1000 on the VESC Tool software, the motor is only spinning at round 60RPM. I have already declare my motor and wheel is at 1:3 ratio using timing belt. May I know what settings can I change to ensure the RPM in the software is the same as the RPM in real life? Thanks in advance
Hi, I recently tried to use CAN-bus to control VESC 6+ (Fw: 5.2 , Hw: 6.0).
Is it possible? I have done with the Motor Settings and tried to set App Setting like below:
And now I knew CAN_ID=60, but don't know the format of the CAN message. (I used speed control to control the motor)
Hi, I'm just getting started with a VESC 6 Mk V, running the f1tenth 5.2 software (with servo out enabled). Where can I see a list of fault codes? I'm getting 17 red flashes on startup, repeated once. When I connect the VESC to the vesc-tool and type "faults" in the terminal the response is "No faults registered since startup". Thank you.
I have a working setup with two FSESCs connected via CAN. Normally I use the UART app and an ESP8266 connected via UART to one of the ESCs to control both motors, which works swimmingly.
I would like to work on the PIDs though, so I have made the ESP8266 a simple Wifi-UART bridge to be able to connect with VESC-Tool.
I can connect fine, and it's just as if I was connected via USB. I can see both ESCs, and I can control both, but I can't seem to find a way to control both at the same time.
I've spent hours trying to get my BT module flashed and working. Using the SWD Prog functionality with a Little FOCer. Connect the module to SWD pins, click "Connect NRF5X", it shows "Target: NRF52832 512K/64K", even though it says NRF51822 on the module itself. Go flash a NRF51822 firmware anyway, it flashes successfully. Connect module via UART, doesn't work. Bought a couple more modules... no luck.
The motor I am using is a 6384 120KV brushless motor and has 60 degree hall sensors. The reading from them are not ok and the motor doesn't have torque. Can someone tell me how to set up the hall sensors?
I tried to detected in FOC mode but it's not working ok.
Hi,
Does anyone know how I can reduce the time delay from forward to reverse operation? I guess it has something to do with a "max erpm before full brake" parameter, but I cannot find
this setting in the android Vesc Tool.
I am using vesc6 with firmware 5.1 on an electric boat. To configure, I use android Vesc Tool 2.06.
Hi everybody,
I recently connected the hall sensors of my 26 inch wheel hub motor to my flysky VESC 6.6 (12S, 60A) .
The result is a way smoother with no more "failure" in the acceleration. But the acceleration itself is much slower than with sensorless mounting.
Do you have any idea of which settings I could change to get the maximum acceleration allowed by my motor ?
Sincerly
