Hello all,
I've been building electric bikes for 4 years now. I recently purchased a 200 amp Maytech VESC and a motor capable of 200 amps continuous. The VESC tool software, however, does not allow over 120 amps for the motor or battery settings. Does anybody know of a way to override this? Thank you for your help!
Hello,
I am working on a project, in which I need to control a linear actuator. When I tried to use VESC's FOC mode to do the auto tuning of the encoder offset under the tab 'encoder', I found the actuator keep moving in one direction without reverse in direction. The encoder realtime data plot showed a smooth curve of the encoder reading so I don't think the encoder is out of order. I have tried a rotary motor and got the tuning done. Anyone have similar experience that can share with me?
Hi
I have a BRH5065-140kV outrunner with a Flipsky 4.12, and I need a very simple setup with my throttle (0,8-2,6V). Linear speed with max torque, and full freewheeling when the throttle is in neutral.
In ADC Duty Cycle, I have linear speed (don't know about the torque, I'm not that far in my testing), but the motor is braking, and the current seems to be 0-0,10A. CH1 and CH2 clearly shows 0,0%, so I don't think it's the mapping. (I do not have CH2, but haven't figured out how to disable it).
I am trying to start the VESC tool but it stays empty.
The first time I started it I got a security warning about a untrusted programs and I selected 'run anyway' and it showed the UI. It did not seem responsive and did not resize. I plugged in the USB cable to the VESC. I got an error message about old firmware and reduced communication and after this it did not respond.
Now every time I start the program it stays empty.
Thanks for checking out my post, I previously made an android app to control my old electric skateboard (did not use VESC) and I am trying to get it working on my new build (uses VESC). The app sends bytes to an arduino that creates a 1ms to 2ms PWM signal for input to the VESC. On windows I followed the Input wizard documentation for PPM and it seemed to work well. I wrote the configuration to the VESC and disconnected it from my laptop but then it stopped working. So I plugged in the VESC again to my laptop and without auto connecting it, it would work again.
Hi i'm having this problem for a lot of time, and now i want to try to find out why. I have set up correctly my board in bldc (twin 4.12 vesc with china hub motor) and with the remote the board works perfectly.
But if i connect the vesc to the vesc tool app on the pc o android app and try to move the motor with the arrow keys (or button in the app) the motor make a bad sound and does not move.
I thought was because of bldc so i tried FOC but with the same result.
Any thought ?
Hi,
My 2.0 Vesc tool tells me I should upgrade my FW to run input wizzard (there was no problem for motor wizzard btw), however FW upgrade page tells me the supported FW is only 3.65.
Is it just a typo or HW60 FW will only be supported later?
I can't get the PPM mapping to work in the setup for the input wizard. I have on the real time data and the real time data app all activated, with PID speed control on. However, the vesc tool and the thing labeled "your vesc" doesn't fluctuate, meaning I don't have correct values for my remote. I need to know if theres a fix to my problem.
nvm fixed
