Submitted by outrunner on Thu, 2022-08-18 06:54

as title states is there any list of the variations of the vesc6 and the differences/changes though out its versions ? im curious if they are major differences that affect performance or just added features (example spin to start etc) that some people may not need. 

Thanks in advance for any information on this. 

i see at least 4 versions?

6.4(first?)

6.5(plus)

6Mk5

6MkVI (current version offered on trampaboards)

VESC 6 MK IV circuit question

Submitted by Simmo1337 on Tue, 2022-08-16 23:10

Hey there!

 

My name's Max, an electronics's engineer from the UK. Long story short, I rode a onewheel about a month ago and became instantly obsessed. Like most, I can't afford one, but I can build one! I've built a self balancing unicycle before, and en ebike controller from scratch. I was thinking I'd have to do the same for this, but very happy to come across the VESC. Leveraging the open source firmware is going to be a life saver.

 

VESC6 75 - any issues?

Anyone managed to get these working? So I have 3 of these and I can’t get the Android Vesc Tool to recognize it as being a valid Vesc item. It says it’s beta (6.0 Beta 53) and the vesc tool is not beta so I should update the firmware urgently, plus it won’t let me setup the motor/wizard. It stops at Detection. 'All vescs must have the latest firmware to perform this function'. Then, 'Could not read motor configuration'.

VESC 100/250 won't go full duty cycle

Hello vesc team,

I'm building an ebike with the 100/250 esc. I have an issue where at about 82% duty cycle will start to lose sync with the motor and if pushed beyond 82% will current fault. This testing is done with the motor freewheeling.

The Setup:

    20s battery pack
    GMAC hub motor
    FOC mode running at 30Khz
    5A motor current and 20A max current for testing

Things I've tried:
