Third Party Hardware

Hi,

I cloned the VESC MINI4 into a different form factor that was mandatory for my project. Due to layout reasons i reversed the current amplification, so the phase current is measured negatively (reversed IN+ and IN- at the amplifier). I thought this can easily be solved by inserting a negative amplification gain. This is not the case as I noticed and after digging deeper into the code I got an idea why, but I am not able to solve it inside the code.

I'm in the process of designing my own dual motor vesc. Currently it is just a slightly modified copy of the VESC4 copied twice on a single board and with NTMFS5C645NL fets, instead of IRFS7530. Also the PWR_COMM and servo output have been removed.

Hi Forum,

i have a VESC HW4.12. I updated the FW via VESC Tool to the VESC_default.bin. After that, and waiting 10s i tried to reconnect, but the USB Device is not recognized on my pc.

I can download newest FW from GIT and newest bootloader via ST-LINK, but the VESC is still not working. No ttyACM device...

Is there anything i made wrong ?

Regards

Georg

Hello ,
I'm thinking to make an high voltage version of Vesc ( 350-450 volts )

there is someone already doing it ?

Hello,

I'm having trouble using a SPI encoder on the MINI4. Has anyone tried this ? 

I also don't really now if it's supported so if anyone has information about that it would help me a lot.

Thank you

Hello,

Does anyone know how to compile and upload the firmware to the MINI4 ?

Thank you

Hello I'm looking for a first advice about how to control my robotic chair project 

Here is what I can do now:

I'm able to move my robotic chair on a tank like mode : 2 BLDC motors each motor connected to it's own VESC, each VESC wired to one channel of an RC receiver that receives signal from a RC transmitter (Flysky FS6) on wich I have setup 2:channels mixing to get differential steering. It works very well !

Hi!

I'm working on a high voltage version of VESC6. Schematics.

Main parts used:

I am using the VESC Tool to configure my Maytech VESC. Hardware 4.12 and firmware 3.40. I am using a 3S LiPo battery. The motor is Velineon 3500, used in 1/10th scale Traxxas RC car.

These are my BLDC Sensorless settings:

• Startup boost: 0.1
• Cycle Integrator Limit: 39.5
• Min ERPM: 200
• Min ERPM Integrator: 800
• BEMF Coupling: 450

The 'BEMF coupling' and 'Cycle Integrator Limit' values were determined using "Detect BLDC Parameters" functionality of the VESC tool.
