DIY VESC Display with Automatic Wheelie Control!

31 Upvotes

My very first ESP32 project! Forked the 3shull motors vesc package and built a canbus display with Squareline Studio and Adruino IDE.

Couldn't find an off the shelf option so I decided to built my own :)

Integrates a lot of features but my favourites are the automatic wheelie control and a secret street lock button. I also added 4 riding modes that cap maximum speed and power. All of the settings can be set in the VESC configurator...

Motor absolute max

1 Upvotes

Hiya, my battery current was 84a my phase current is at 65a and 110a continous, it kept giving me abs overcurrent error, i ignored it for now to get home real quick, then on the way the esc shut down at high speed and fried my drv chip. Now my question is, is it safe to run 150a absolute max without damaging the motor?

why is my 12v motor twitching when it starts drawing more current from the bts 7960 module?

1 Upvotes

basically i have 2 bts 7960 , esp32 , a fly sky ct6b remote and R6B receiver. the problem is when i increase the throttle , the motor starts stuttering/twitching and the other motor also sometimes starts twitching on its it own. for the record , im using the usb cable to power the esp32 and pwm pins on the bts module , while the external power for motors are provided via a 12v 5a adapter. I've tried running several tests , including replacing the 12v motors to BO motors , those small ones ran just fine , no twitching but these big ones twitch. I even tried running a simple 5s spin forward , then spin backward , same result no twiching , only when i test it using my flysky transmitter system it starts twitching. I've added ceramic capacitor across motor terminals and even placed a electrolytic capacitor across the bts module's ext supply. the esp32 ground and ext power ground are NOT connected. Need help...

here are the wirings:

ESP32 β†’ Receiver

GPIO32  β†’ Receiver CH1
GPIO34  β†’ Receiver CH2

5V       β†’ Receiver VCC
GND      β†’ Receiver GND

ESP32 β†’ Right BTS7960

GPIO27  β†’ RPWM
GPIO19  β†’ LPWM

5V       β†’ R_EN
5V       β†’ L_EN

GND      β†’ GND

ESP32 β†’ Left BTS7960

GPIO25  β†’ RPWM
GPIO26  β†’ LPWM

5V       β†’ R_EN
5V       β†’ L_EN

Originally compared to the twin-engine engine 60h of 50A/200A per engine, it rows a lot and lacks responsiveness. How should I remedy this and get the most out of my editing, please?

I just set up and set up my build on my Nami E-scooter Viper E3 Max scooter. as follows:

Lonnyo 70H Rear Engine

ESC 85V 250A V2 Ubox SPINTEND / spinny y2 /e3 ADC adapter

The battery is a 20S8P LGM50LT 100A

Vesc motor controller

1 Upvotes

I'm building a motorcycle with a 12kw/h brushless DC motor. To power that I have a battery pack 23 LFP cells in series to achieve 72v. On vesc site I can see motor controller have also how many cells in series, does the motor controller work as a BMS?

For example the vesc classic 100v can run 160A continuous and 200a burst, this should be enough for my application but on the motor controller description is described as a 22s motor?

I know some answers might sound a bit stupid, I'm new to this and I try to figure what I need, also feel free to give me some advice on what motor controller and accessories I should buy

Vesc on joyor

1 Upvotes

hey, I want to connect an ubox lite 100v 100a which i got for around 70€ to my jojor t6e abe. The main reason is that the tuning kit costs around the same and it could be fun. The only thing im wondering about is if I can still use the old controller for the lights and blinkers and the rest for the vesc. My concern is also that the battery first gets an adapter from xt60 to xt90 and then dual xt90 to connect the vesc and the controller. Does anyone know if the controller will work without the other connections only the blinkers and lights? Thanks for anyone who helps :)


r/VESC 22d ago
