VESC 75/300 R2 with R1 Firmware

Submitted by frank on Thu, 2019-11-28 09:39

There have been a few VESC 75/R2 (V1.12) sent with R1 firmware installed. The problem ith that firmware is Bluetooth functionality. For Bluetooth and some Comm communication you need the correct R2 Firmware.

The firmware can be found here:

Unable to connect via Bluetooth or wired connection

Submitted by Sososst1488 on Thu, 2026-04-02 18:23

I connected everything and configured it, saving the firmware. After checking everything, I turned off the PC and went to bed. In the morning, I wanted to finish the firmware, but it simply doesn't detect the controller via the wire. When I try to connect via Bluetooth, I get the error "Could not read firmware version. Make sure that the selected port actually belongs to the VESC. If you are using UART, make sure the port is enabled, connected correctly (rx to tx and tx to rx), and uses the correct baudrate." What should I do? Vesc Flipsky 75100 Pro V2

Low-Speed Hall Interpolation Performance Issues

Submitted by cpaterson on Tue, 2026-01-27 03:42

I'm trying to debug an issue I'm having with low electrical/mechanical rotational speed, speed control, running the VESC Labs Maxim 120V model which I believe runs on FW version 6.06. I'm controlling a internal permanent magnet motor, which is running hall sensor based rotor position sensing. The motor has 8 poles. I'm trying to run as low as 10 RPM mechanical, so 40 ERPM on a dynamometer setup.

Measured stator resistance not consistent

Submitted by LoicLL on Wed, 2026-01-21 18:15

I'm currently implementing a custom VESC hardware based on the VESC4 architecture, using a STM32F405 and version 6.06 of the firmware.

I'm encountering an issue with stator resistance measurement. Using the terminal command "measure_res [current]", I've observed that the lower the current target, the higher the stator resistance value, and the higher the current target (still less than 5.0 A), the lower the stator resistance value. Is this expected behavior?

Modifications Needed for Custom Dual Motor ESC for 3S Operation

Submitted by NK-108 on Mon, 2025-12-15 18:27

I am attempting to create a single-board dual motor ESC for use on a small 3S UGV. It's been pretty slow going reverse engineering from the 6.5 schematics and the hw_conf files. My original idea was just to duplicate basically everything and then have them connected to single CAN bus with the vehicle controller, but I just discovered the HAS_DUAL_MOTORS parameter which seems perfect for me application. 

Lispbm Scripting

Submitted by Sanderehv87 on Wed, 2025-08-27 00:49

Hello,

Sinds the new stable 6.06 firmware my lisp script cannot be uploaded to the device anymore

I'm using an ubox_singel_80 en get this error:

 

Preparing new image...

Parsing 14894 characters

Error: type_error

CTX: 408 "main-u"

Current: i

bound to: 0

In: bufget-u8

eval_cps.c line number: 3454

 

Has somebody an idea how I can solve this.

If more info is needed please let me know so I can provide it.

 

Sander
