Just had a convo in vesc discord leaving me less sure any of it is more “right” than the other.

PWM vs PPM vs Servo Control: Vesc PPM app is named wrong.

Aafter a bunch of internet research into how the control mode the PPM app is using is normally referred to here’s what i’ve found: Servo Control the vesc PPM app doesn’t decode PPM. it decodes “servo control”. which is a defacto standard without much of a name. but under the name servo control it does have a wikipedia page. PWM most commonly that protocol is referred to as PWM by RC manufacturers. but importantly it’s not “full PWM”. Servo control does not expect full duty_cycle n…

Servo Control > PWM > PPM (PPM is just totally wrong)
