You can increase the HFI erpm cutoff to whatever you want, but I don’t know if that will cause rotor tracking issues by not using back EMF for high speed position tracking
 but I think it might make the sound you want to hear happen continuously

I’ll have to check which max erpm could be ok before disengaging it based on speed
 I think for up to 30km/h, after that wind and ambient noise should prevail anyway for awareness so back to normal FOC silence.

Thanks for the tip !

Edit : On another note, does anyone know if there has been failures reported on the VESC 6 plus integrated switch ? I think yes but not sure. Apart from it, what are main différences with VESC 6.4 ?

After doing maintenance to my board with ESCapes, I figured why not try out the new HFI on the VESC Tool. Although, to my concern I am having an extremely long update time for the firmware? It is about 5 mins now and only around 20-25% compiled. Is this normal for this new 4.0 update? It never takes me this long on Ackmaniac’s tool. Just connect, firmware loads quickly, and I am onto motor detection.

Just want to make sure that something isn’t wrong with my ESCapes, bootloader, etc.

Either wait or cancel. I canceled it after 15 minutes and 8%

#641

LOL, same here. Even under the “stay at home” status, I can’t wait this damn long. I will just stick with what I know. Back to Ack.

I’ve been using Ack ever since the godfather himself @mmaner recommended it to me.

Since the stock vesc tool wasn’t able to do the simplest tasks (connecting CAN) i switched and never had any regrets.

Since that didn’t work either for me (also sk3) i switched back yet again :smiley:
