pas sensor on rc esc

[Adried]

I need some help,
Is there a simple way to use a pas sensor on a rc esc?

How are you interfacing with the esc?
candance pas sensors use a set of hall sensors, so you could read that input with an Arduino and then pwm the esc from there.

Thank you for the your help.
I know you can do a lot with arduino, but it must be super simple.
I have a link, but i don't think its gone work.

If you want simple I would go with a premade pad sensor and then mod the wires to work with arduino. That way you won't have to deal with positioning magnets.

Ill look for some external hall sensors when I have some time,

something like this, its just a 3 wire, 5v, ground, and signal. 5v would work nicely with Arduino and an rc esc bec.

Is there any reason you couldnt use a cycle analyst v3? It works with PAS input and can output throttle signal as pulse for rc esc.

Seems like everything you need is already in one package and you get all the other useful features of a CA.

Yes, i can use the cycle analyst, but i'm looking for a simple and cheap solution.
