VESC for RC Boats?
« on: March 12, 2024, 04:23:39 pm »

I cant find any past threads, and it might be a bit sledge hammer to crack a nut, but I wondered if anyone has ever used a VESC esc on a boat?


A good friend of mine has done a lot of work with robotics, brushless motors, ducted fans, and recommended the below as being a good quality ESC which will allow high quality low speed motor control of a sensorless brushless dc motor. As well as also having support for a sensored motor.


Flipsky FSESC 4.12 50A

Any thoughts welcome.

Does it have software for rapidly reversing a sensorless brushless motor?

I've seen it in use in some high-powered RC project on Utube ....
