I’ve been out of this DIY world for some years and wanted some advice… I have a skateboard I built 8+ yrs ago with these programa le VESC. Unused a program called BLDC on windows 7…
Does the new VESC program work on the older controllers to modify the settings ??
I would stick to 10S max voltage in FOC mode – or – 12S max voltage in BLDC mode with this hardware and be very conservative with your battery current, like 15A. The motor current can go significantly higher, like 60A or more.
I was able to try and connect and One vesc connected but it told me the firmware was too old and it was in limited connection mode. I browsed in the different menus and didnt see any useful info or connection. I then disconnected the cable and when i went to connect again the computer doesnt recognize it at all. i tried two computers no luck. What should i do to get the usb to read again and how do i go about updating firmware? Im running Vesc 6.05.exe
