Hey guys, sorry Its been a while, but I'm back. I was busy with some other projects. I decided to redesign the remote into a smaller form factor, and more ergonomic feel. I'm currently 3D printing the enclosure, meanwhile enjoy a time lapse of the design process :D 3_xmDf8xNUw

Nice design idea, however I would not recommend putting the esc close to your bldc motor unless you shield the circuitry very well. The electromagnetic field around your motor can easily disrupt your esc causing weak or unstable signal if you have the receiver nearby as well. It can also cause...

Been working on the UI interface. What do you guys think?

After I 3d printed the above design it didn't feel comfortable on the hand as I expected, so I decided to redo the design and go with something similar to the nunchuk. The new design feels much more comfortable and compact, I will be adding buttons to it today. Here is the current design:

Very interesting project indeed, would be very useful to benchmark those motors.

Thank you guys, I will post an update once I get some of the parts I ordered, should be here tomorrow :D Thank you :) I saw your work and you did a good job on your design too. You are right about the hall effect idea. I may create a joystick based on the hall effect sensor instead of the...

Hello all! For the past month I have been developing an advanced remote control for the Vesc that supports telemetry. RollingGecko started an open source project similar to mine, and he did a fantastic job, however the project doesn't seem to advance that much so I decided to start my own from...

You know you can just use a central enabled bluethooth module on the vesc, and then use the feather as it is as a peripheral. No need for all that hassle :) EDIT: It seems that the bluefruit BLE does not support SPP and cannot communicate with standard Bluetooth modules, it has a proprietary...

Any reason why you switched from nrf24 to Bluetooth?
