would running it with the sensor wire help
Sensors will help the startup torque, you need to do a motor detection so the vesc knows the hall table, after that just tick the sensor mode
You also have to connect the motor wires a certain way to run sensors or you will fry something. Do not attempt sensor operation until youāve done your homework on it.
Not sure what you mean here, he has tb motors with sensors, he just needs to plug them in the sensor port of the vesc and run a motor detection so the vesc can know the position of the sensors
When you run motors sensored, you have to match the phase wires between the Esc and motor. Unless the Vesc is different than all other Escās concerning this.
Yes the vesc is able to detect the position of the hall sensors, you can put them in any order
Well, that sure is good news. Does that work in bldc mode or just foc?
In both modes you can detect the hall sensor position, but you need to it in itās respective tab
I have the same problem, starts out around 100-107, also the pins for the rc receiver was completely loose. I waited several months too, super frustratingā¦ since I canāt test it with my receiver, I canāt see what the temperature effect would be after running for a while eitherā¦
I have the exact same issues (110+ C FET temps) and fault showing up on my VESC that I just received from this week. I thought it was an issue with my settings and have been double- and triple-checking everything.
To me, this just confirms that they have a bad batch.
Send it back. Not worth the money.
Having the same exact issue with my new VESC from DIY. Reading mosfet temp of 100+Ā°C on startup.
@basselope @LordSnow @hannesr @mnelson3690
Is anybody able to read the resistor code of R2, should be a 3 digit code
I have a feeling you all have a common problem
01C? Not sure if O/0 or I/1 since itās so small, but thatās what I can see
Thanks, yes that is the right code (01C = 10k ohm resistor). So thats not the problem
Could you check if R1 space is populate.
Itās there. If there any markings on it, I canāt see them because I still have the shrink wrap on
Yeah @torqueboards what should we do? The best I got from you was to send it back (didnāt get any response on what to do with shipping, shipping here alone was $40)ā¦ Iām also not eager to wait another two months ore more like I did with this one. Now you went into non responsive mode. I wouldāve been a loyal customer if you only treated with respect, and not cheated me with my moneyā¦ Oh and it was also delayed a month from estimated deliveryā¦
Hey guysā¦ Sorry didnāt see this info until I got tagged.
There actually seems to be an issue with a bad R1 component. Weāve tested it and R1 fixed the issue. So itās just a bad temp sensor component. You would have to replace it.
Weāll be happy to replace it for you. It would require you to ship back your current VESC. We can give you credit for the shipping costs and send you a new VESC as a replacement.
Iāll send a direct PM to each of you who mentioned as we should have a new batch with the R1 issue fixed.
