I’ve never heard of that. If this was a warning thing, it’s probably normal since vesc 4 wasn’t really that strong and had possibly heated up faster? Since FOC does make things run hotter.
I originally asked why people were refraining from using anything above 10s with a vesc4, to which I was told that the vesc would get fried, but when I asked the people who actually used 12s on a vesc4, they said to just avoid FOC while doing it and I’ll likely be fine. The warning was from people on this forum
im one of those who refuse to use more than 10s liion on v4, but that’s just me being paranoid because of voltage spike, “theoretically” its safe until 12s for liion
i don’t think i’ve seen anyone purposely use bldc mode with 12s on v4, maybe back when foc was still in development then yea its possible, but those days are gone already
I followed your steps and tried to play with the parameters a little bit…
I must be dumb but I really don’t feel much difference switching from defaults to
8A
200 erpm
0.08 D
I have two Maytech 6365 motors powered by a 10s4p and based on your example parameters for a 6380 I switched mine.
I don’t understand if motors in detection should reach their limits or they just have to run smoothly, my motors seem to work fine with defaults and with the parameters written above.
Do you have any recommendation for 6365?
Is there a compendium of good decks to use for building like how there is for pneumatics? There are always some I’ve never seen before on there and usually there’s no name listed
Upping those numbers is to get a successful detection. If you use the defaults, it will likely error out on a large motor. It’s not going to increase performance. Once you detect the Cycle Integrator Limit and BEMF Coupling numbers, that’s all you need for BLDC mode. Those are the two numbers you’re after and they’ll be specific to your motor.
FOC mode is completely different, has more numbers, and has a wizard.
It’s personal preference really. They are most useful on mountainboards, but some people put them on regular boards as well so they can jump without a kicktail and lean more.
