VESC Firmware

Hi all, I have a brand new MakerX D60 vesc and it won't connect to my computer anymore. I also have a MakerX DV6 that I was using for a bit, but I switched to the D60 to see how they compare. The D60 worked well for a while, but after plugging it back in to my laptop and VESC Tool, it immediatly reset the vesc to factory values and erased all my settings and values I'd set up for my eboard. I disconnected the vesc and reconnected it to see if it was just a bug, but my settings still weren't there.

Hello All, 

I am trying to drive synchronous reluctance motor using VESC Controller (Flipsky 75200). 

Currently, There is no back EMF in this reluctance motor, which is causing problem while driving this motor with PMSM controller. 

Can we drive this magnetless synchronous reluctance motor with VESC controller. 

I'm open for both sensor-less and sensor-ed control. I have sine/cosine sensor installed on the motor. 

Thanks in advance,

Mandar. 

Could a newbie to the VESC project get guidance on the throttle routines that the VESC firmware employees? Specifically, where to find them in the code base and best practices for modifying.

Background:

OKay so i bought ..well traded a 300$ new drill i got for free for this a  dual fsesc6.6 and it has the sk8 149kv motors but it didnt come with a battery (which i thought was strange) so i got a battery from another board i have 22.2v 8000mah 6s and im not able to get the current firmware to sucessfuly download ...i mean it starts and finishes the download it just says a error message to fast and small to read on the bottom right and then it says i might have to do a bootleg or something firmware so idk ive tried so many things i hope i didnt break anything any tips?

I upgraded the firmware on my VESC to 6.02 while troubleshooting why my CAN Bus wasn't working. I am now trying to downgrade back to 5.03 as I resolved my issue. However, I am having trouble with the archive download of 5.03 firmware in VESC Tool and trouble with making the file after checking out the Github repo and checking out release 5.03. Any recommendations for getting the proper firmware file for 5.03?

Dear friends, please, help me to run VESC firmware on NUCLEO f401re board. 

Short describe of my project:

I need steering BLDC motor 150W in laboratory vacuum chamber, before I use flipsky 4.20 and it work perfekt. But unfortunatelly during experiments in vacuum chamber I have some problem with controller board (due to overheating from external experimental devices and plazma sparks) STM chip burn out. 

Dear all, 

After wiring up an old VESC 4.7 to use in a current project, the VESC software states the detected firmware is too old, but can however be updated from the firmware page. 

Hi, 

I am looking to add an encoder to a Maytech 200A ESC, and i want to know if it's possible ? im thinking of using pin RX and TX as a software spi to do my readings, is this the right way to do it ? 

Thanks in advence 

I don't see how much storage space is used when writing to the board. Can I get a ballpark figure?

I know the STM32F405 has a Flash memory of 1Mb and an SRAM of 196Kb.

I'd be interested in getting VESC software running on the equally fast but less spacious STM32G431 (128Kb Flash, 32Kb SRAM).

To any helpful souls, thank you in advance!

Hello.

Im trying to compile vesc express firmware for my esp32 mini d1.

I managed to setup toolchain and get the code compiling but i get some error that i dont know how to solve.

Only change i have made is set target to esp32 insted of esp32c3.

here re the errors from command prompt.
