Dear People,
I would like to control a Brushless DC motor with VESC. As far as I understood, we can control the motor with different ways.
I understood that we can control the motor via USB but I couldn't find a document that shows how we can control the motor via USB from PC.
Hi
Is it possible to log the motor command along with the realtime data coming back from the VESC? I want to see how well the motor response is tracking the command when driving a large multirotor motor. This will help with the PID tuning. Command is currently received via the CAN bus.
Thanks!

Hi. How do I access/share the backup file that can be created within the app. (android)
I can only create the file and restore it within the app. I want to share the file itself with somebody.
Thx and happy riding!
Hi
I try to use 1 hand throttle that have a 1-4 volt throttle.
But it have full power at half throttle.
Cant the ADC read up to 5 volt ? (the menu says 3.3v max)
Hello guys
i built a ride on car powered by vesc 6.6 dual plus from flipsky and 6374 motors. it is fully remote controlled and manual controlled at the same time . I managed to have remote control over the disk brakes, throttle and searing. the car at 24v clocked 30km/h.
It is probably the most complex usage of the vesc. I used all options possible. The car has now
Hi! I'm running a 4.20 on a DC 12V 400w trolling motor in DC mode. I'm running the latest Vesc tool (pc version )from this site and it seems there's a current limit I cant get past in the setup. The motor is spec'd to 400w at 12V but seems it tops out at about 250w for some reason. The battery current draw seems to top out on about 22A even with battery draw limit is set to 34A and motor amp is set to 100A. I also tried running 24V on the motor and it still didn't develop more power.
Hello,
about 10 years ago i also build ESC for brushless motors with an ATMEL uC's only in BLDC Mode.
Now i have more time for my hobby and looking for a new good ESC for my powerboats.
First i test some cheap china ESC like Hobbywing... but this is not what i want...
Than i read about the VESC Projekt and this sound very good, so i also want to run in FOC Mode. :-)
For testeing i get one cheap focer 2.
But it is very hard to get the motor runing.
I have been trying to figure out how to add a custom app to VESC-Tool. I tried to follow http://vedder.se/2015/08/vesc-writing-custom-applications/ but I found that the version of VESC-Tool I have (https://github.com/vedderb/vesc_tool) doesn't have the same file names as those referenced in the tutorial.
Is it inadvisable to use the motor and input wizards without the motors connected to the drivetrain? My belts were to tight and I would like to set everything up while I wait for the new ones.
