I've just had my 1st test of my VESC on my 10s brushless longboard (was 6S on a 150A EZrun car esc). Just up and down the drive (a long drive) and didnt go anywhere near top speed.
1) Smooth start - LOVE IT!
2) Smooth acceleration - really like it.
3) Smooth braking - LOVE IT.
Now the one quesiton I have, is that the acceleration , compared to my EZRun 150A esc setup, is far more gentle with the VESC. To the point that I can hold the throttle wide open after start up and the speed will gradually build up. On my board with 6S and the car esc, doing that would throw you off the board!
Is this how it's meant to be? I like the smooth acceleration, but I would like a little more punch to it in case I want to get moving faster.
Also - is there a faily compact source of info on tweaking the VESC - I'm struggling to find a central repository of information. For example, what is FOC, and how to I enable it> and why would I? I'm sure it's burried in a 100 page post somewhere but I can't find it.
