How to determine motor size in wizard, hub motors ?

Great tool thank you !

From the image choices for motor size in the  wizard, I just see images of motor size, weight, and type. Yes simple setup wizard.

 Not really sure which one to choose for size, I don't know the weight, but they're out runner motors, hub motors for skate board.

I've done the detections  for mini = 10 amps, small = 17 amps, medium = 27 amps, these are unloaded tests. Are these the settings I'm supposed to use  for motor max ?

Connection over USB failed

I can't connect to my VESC over USB using the VESC Tool. I tried using different cables and still no luck. I checked my device manager and my computer recognizes the VESC as a USB device.

I think this might be because the VESC tool is trying to connect over the wrong port.

Does anyone know how to change the port on the VESC tool, or any other reason why I'm not able to connect?

Hiya,

I just purchased the Android VESC tool and updated my firmware through the mobile APP.

VESC for PC tells me there is a new software version available and wont let me use it until I update the software or downgrade the firmware.

The download link I get through vesc-project is still version 0.95.

Is this the latest version?

 

//NEVERMIND - PAID VERSION LINK WAS NEWER VERSION :P  //

 

Cheers,

Pete.

[SOLVED] RPM setting not working

Hello everybody,

First of all I would like to thank all the people who contributed to this awesome project.

I have a problem related to VESC tool, when I try to set a given rpm, the motor does not spin properly, vibrates a lot and makes a lot of noise. However using duty cycle control everything works perfectly...This is getting me confused.

I use HW4.12, I tried 2 different VESC. Their fw is up to date.I use the latest version of VESC tool.

I tried with T-motor MN4012 480kV and scorpion SII 4025 520kV. These motor do not have sensors.
