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.
Hey Guys,
I read the tutorial on the Input wizard for PPM remote, but it doesn't say how to determine what to set your motor and battery current max at. Can someone please advise? I am running dual 6374 190kv TB outrunners with a 10S3P Battery and single FCESC6.6 with internal CANbus. Thanks
I'm trying to set up my VESC for the first time. I am using the Dual FSESC4.20 from Flipsky to drive 2 hoverboard wheels with an R/C controller. I will only be using these for forward and backward and not for steering. I am using the wizard to set up the motors. Should I be using the setting for E-Bike DD Hub Motor (~6 kg)?
don't know how to removed it..
Hi,
While riding I have music from my phone over bluetooth which also uses the pause, prev, next buttons from my speaker. Wth the vesc tool app in the foreground my speaker buttons no longer function.
It also drains my battery very quickly even though I have my phone charging from my speaker.
I have another controller that uses a complimentary bluetooth app and I have neither issue with that.
Is this a known issue with (hopefully) a solution? Or maybe there're alternative recommended apps for live data?
Hello! Apologies if this belongs in the 3rd party area, I am not sure if the issue is hardware, software or some combination. I am running a Maker-X FOC Mini (HW Version "60" in VESC Tool). It is communicating properly and successfully updated to FW 5.1. I can get my motor running, just not very well or consistently.
