I have been having an issue during riding it feels as though my belts are slipping. Belts look fine so I wasn’t sure what was going on. Just weird vibrations that I’ve never experienced before.
At home, I was able to see that one of the motors vibrates when trying to apply torque. It’s not consistent and will sometimes work perfectly fine. I tried redoing motor calibration, and everything succeeded but this issue still comes up. Does anyone have any idea what’s going on? Maybe a setting I’m missing in VESC tool.
Looks like cogging? Something funky may be going on with your sensors where most of the time it’s ok but other times not so great. Maybe check for signs of wear on the wires or loose sensor connections maybe.
Yep, that’s the kind of cogging you get when the ESC cannot estimate the motor’s position. From standstill this is due to bad sensors or bad motor calibration, or your vesc settings might be set to sensorless. If you have a good ESC you might be able to use HFI instead of sensors:
