how can i find out what’s per VESC and what’s total. I noticed that motor settings have two fields one for each motor. so if i don’t see two fields does that mean that value is per VESC?

you’re literally walking the path of pain I experienced jumping from Unity to FW5… HFI was awful…
what I do now is set everything up on one VESC(side/motor) I write down or take screen caps of every single setting
then I swap to the other VESC (side/motor) and carefully check each and every setting…

and then I save the config

on both the app and desktop…ohh ok i see the two now. The values like max brake regen is only one value but that value is per VESC correct.

Hi, can someone confirm if the IMU or gyroscope is already working on the unity?

yup… motor config is definitely per vesc…

I’d been on Unity so long I fogot everything VESC related… what I did was go thru @mmaner’s
ACK tutorial to refresh myself… It’s not 1 to 1 exact but it gives you a feel for what must be done…

good luck buddy, you’ll get it… hang in there!!

I haven’t actually tested it, but the IMU is physically on the Unity
I’ve seen the pull additions and the change log on beta FW5.02

So far, the changes are:

  • Bidirectional current mode for VESC Remotes.
  • Motor temperature measurement fix on unity and stormcore.
  • IMU calibration improvements.
  • VESC Tool does not allow uploading firmware to all VESCs on the CAN-bus if they have different hardware versions.

It should work as the IMU on Unity and stormcore are the same, but I’m not about to flash new (beta) FW to my working boards to check it out…

went for a store run today going about 4 mph I hit a bump and my board powered off. about 10 feet away hit another bump powered off again. to test this theory avoided all bumps and took it easy…no power off. purposely hit a large bump…power off. I remember seeing this somewhere but I can’t find it. anybody remember the thread this was in?
