VESC Tool

Hi,

everything is in the title, is there a way with the vesc tool to export in csv the efficiency of the VESC itself. Power injected to the motor / Power taken from the battery = VESC efficiency. Then knowing my motor efficiency at a certain RPM, I should be able to estimate pretty precisely my global system efficiency. These would be super helpful for me, I design farming machines and for one of our project, I have planed to use the VESC to power our machine and measure the power consumption of our machine.

Thanks in advance.

Hello !

I'm developing a C++ driver with a Qt interface to send inputs to my fsesc through can bus from py PC in order to command a DC motor and to read the current from the esc .

NEED TO SET UP FOWARD REVERSE AND ALSO REGEN. i CAN GET FWD REV ok BUT NOT WITH REGEN. USING TWO OF THE NEW 100 VOLT 300 AMP CONTROLLERS.

HOW DO i DO THAT?

This is for an e-bike custom build. I am using a bbshd motor and a Spintend ubox single controller with a fully charged 52 volt 19 ah battery. I am very new to this technology and did not know it existed until a few weeks ago. When I am running the motor setup I am getting this error message. I'm only using the hall connections and phase wires for now. Nothing else is connected. I would appreciate if someone could please help troubleshoot this issue with me.

VESC Tool errors on startup on my Windows 10 x64 system. It looks like a QT message. Here's the whole thing...

Failed to create OpenGL context for format QSurfaceFormat(version 2.0, options QFlags<QSurfaceFormat::FormatOption>(), depthBufferSize 24, redBufferSize -1, greenBufferSize -1, blueBufferSize -1, alphaBufferSize -1, stencilBufferSize 8, samples -1, swapBehavior QSurfaceFormat::DoubleBuffer, swapInterval 1, colorSpace QSurfaceFormat::DefaultColorSpace, profile QSurfaceFormat::NoProfile) .

I checked my RX PPM output pulse width using a scope (well, two different Picoscopes). It has a min to max range of 1.1 to 1.9ms

However, the Real Time app reports this as 1.324 to 3.147ms

That confuses me, any explanation people ?

Hello,

New user here, running some test with a VESC EDU and a Scorpion Outrunner 380 Kv medium size drone outrunner motor.

Just getting to know the features to validate if a Vesc setup can be successfully used in a full-scale project.

Want to check the HFI parameters, have watched some youtube video's about this item.

But it seems that the HFI Plot function on the Realtime data is not working correctly in my case.

Running a Vesc Tool (Beta) 4.00 Version 8 on a Windows machine.

Have enabled HFI plot in the terminal.

Hey,

I'm using sk8-esc V6 with  MTO5065-HA-C motor. Im powering this system from lab bench power supply, because I'm intent to use this system for automatization purposes. My lab bench power supply shows maximum of 5 A current when trying to block motor, but the VESC tool software real time monitoring shows current to peak around 10-15 A. So a scaled measurements, also RPMs are way higher then they should be. I get around 700 RPM with a digital tachometer, while VESC tool shows around 10 000 RPM ! Is this normal? Should i get scaled units and how to unscale

Hello there,

i think i have an easy question.

How can i configure my fsesc 4.20 from flipsky with the vesctool, that i can control my motor with an external PWM-signal?

I just want to control the motorspeed with the PWM-signal for some tests in a studyproject.

Thats all i hope you can help me.
