Then maybe it’s simply a bug? I am also noticing this but it’s not wobbling me out like @rich’s video

Yes. I would say it’s non stable

@Trampa I’m a big fan of having specific real world examples of points I’m trying to make. This is one of those very examples.
Do you recall a certain stable/unstable discussion recently and how the lack of a dev/stable cycle can be problematic?
You have multiple users, including @rich (whom I’m particularly fond of thanks to his sweet choice in hubs and also greatly trust his experience/insight), reporting issues.
This is going to happen. It’ll keep happening. It’s part of hardware development.
Which is exactly why it should be happening as an opt-in dev branch so users have visibility & choice.

I am nothing if not a proper opportunist.

This thread is for the unstable trampa branch.
The stable code will be over here

It’s been awhile Brian. But finally, just finally I can agree with you. Let’s make out really quick… 
P.S- Serious too…

This is my first foray away from the rock-solid @Ackmaniac code, and only for the HFI feature. Which, by the way, is a new “essential feature” on any of my skates

Well… Hopefully wobbly motor speed is too.
Because if not @Trampa will say it’s your fault anyways.

I can’t imagine any scenario where software induced speed wobbles are better than hooking up a sensor.

I didn’t say the HFI had to come from Trampa. Time to start the research into what’s possible.

Prolly not, and if he did it would only be in Trampa VESCs. I’ll just keep using Ack until something better comes along. Features aside, my stuff works… And I even have reverse

You know, private data can become public once the lawsuits come rolling in. Unless he isn’t selling VESCs with the latest FW, which would be telling.

Current mode with Wand remote (NRF remotes don’t have many control modes like PPM).
I’m not 100% sure yet if it’s the FW4.0 but I think so. After downgrading to FW3.62 and testing on weekend I should know and report back here. Maybe I need to downgrade the Wand as well

please test for all our sakes, both @DavidC and @Titoxd1000 have reported similar issues that were resolved by downgrading

Same happens to me, the board wobble in a strange way, can not push the throttle harder because it is getting quite dangerous. I have 2 Vesc6+, canbus, 6380 TB motors, miniremote PPM…It is the same as @rich described…

@Halbj613: Check you USB cable. Those issues are often USB related. You can try a TCB bridge and see if you get the same issue with wireless connections.
Whobbles: We did some tests this morning and tried to replicate what some users described here:
Benjamin will publish a FW update with a lower standard Time Constant value.
Currently the detection uses 4000uS. This affects the KP and KI value on motor detection.
For everyone experiencing a wobble at a certain RPM, please use 1000uS Time Constant during detection.

Quick guys, Ben’s pusing a change that’s mostly untested on many setups to the stable main branch. I would recommend updating immediately for the latest and greatest . . . If you can get to the vesc tool that is

anyone else start getting over current faults after switching to HFI? Can’t even go past 50% duty before cutouts start happening… also is there any reason for HFI to be active when braking? I never had cogging when braking sensorless, but HFI braking feels a bit gritty/not smooth
