Can I control my E Bike motor controller with Arduino?

Hello!

I'm starting a new project where I want to tranform a walker into a rolling chair when needed. My plan is to change two wheels with this one : https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B08NCYXMT4...utomotive&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9kZXRhaWwy

It's a brushless motor with Hall sensor. I want to control it with this controller :

It's easier because I already know how to combine two controllers like that with one joystick to be able to control the speed of the two wheels. My problem arrises for turning my chair. I want to go back and forth but also left and right. My plan was to use a joystick or something similar and when I want to turn left my left wheel stops and the right one goes forward. To do so, I was planning to use an Arduino board and to connect it to the controller thanks to the 1:1 assist cable (I did some research and it seams like I can use an analog signal from 0 to 5V). My question is, did anyone already tried something like that? I did a lot of research but couldn't find anything. DO you think that it could work or does the LCD display can create some problems as it will also controll some stuff too?

Thanks in advance!
Sorry, English is not my first language so I don't know if everything is clear. If not, don't hesitate to ask me.
 
Hello . Yes, you can control the controller through Arduino . But there are several questions - does your controller have reverse? Do you know the exchange protocol between the controller and the LCD indicator ? I use STM32 for this task, but I have remote control via transmitter TX12 from Radiomaster .
