Benchmark regenerative braking

Hi,

I am doing a research project where I am studying whether an electric propeller on a sailboat can be used to generate energy and when it is needed; generate propulsion too.

So, at first, I would like to benchmark regenerative braking to see if this is something to go further with. And I think Vesc Tool might be a good tool for this project.

I have 2 high discharge lipo batteries which combined gives 48 V, VESC 75/300, an Flipsky61461 waterproof motor and a small Flipsky 5062 to play with.

Logging real time data from a custom app

Hi,

I am writing a custom VESC app that uses the uart and an analog input to read the output of a sensor. I would like to read the measured sensor data via the bluetooth connection (NRF51822). Is it possible to define a custom parameter to be monitored with the RT-monitor in VESC Tool?

 

Kind regards,

Erpm / torque setting with remote control, Vesc wand

Hi
I'm working on a small electric snowmobile that is controlled by a Vesc wand (and a Vesc 6)
The problem is that the moment of inertia is very large at the start moment and the moment of inertia reduces the force as soon as the snowmobile belt starts to rotate..
This makes it very difficult to drive /start
How should I make settings for / in Vesc wand / Vesc tool to get a smooth start?
grateful for learning

VESC-Standard from enertionboards hardware version

Submitted by soccerbeast003 on Wed, 2021-01-20 18:48

I haven't connected my VESC to a computer for a long while and needed to change some settings recently, but I downloaded the new VESC-Tool program and I am unsure of what hardware version I have. The link for my VESC is dead and I cant find any info on the PCB. Does anyone know what version I should use to update the firmware?

 

Thanks

Hello everyone

This is my first post ;)

I have FSESC4.20 connected to a hoverboard motor and a flysky RC car receiver.

I have the hall sensors connected I don’t know if the order will be okay...

However in the forward direction and the brake apparently works well

I can't in any way change the direction of rotation when I press to reverse the transmitter on throtlle.

What am I doing wrong? it will be a connection problem?

I would appreciate your help

VESC tool for Android

hi,
I have updated the tools to the current version 3.0.
Great tools, many thanks to the developers!!!

Unfortunately I have one problem.

With this version I cannot select a path for "Realtime Data Logging" under Android. If I enter a path manually, no .csv file is saved there. With version 2.06 it worked successfully.

Does anyone have a tip on what I am doing wrong or has anyone used this successfully under Android?
I am using Android 10 on a Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S.

Thanks a lot  

 

FOC detection not working, "L=0"

Ciao all,

I have tried to search for this issue, but unfortunately the forum has no search function and Google is no help (I found "R = 0" though...)
We're running the VESC tool 0.95 as we're running old FW and if we upgrade the VESC tool we're no longer able to run some functions in the VESC tool.

One of our MkV VESCs now has an issue where it doesn't detect the L value during motor setup.
Other VESCs that I try are able to detect this without an issue.

motor to slow and no power

Hello

I've got a 8kw motor 4 poles and no sensors connected to a vesc 200 amps 30V 8S lipo 

With no charge all seems good and speed is good

but with charge the speed decrease and what I don't anderstand is that amperes are not up to correct the speed as asked ? It stay at maximum 13 Amperes !!

Impossible to find a way to overs 13 amps ?! Even a 100 amps for increase the spedd where cool
