Braddudya said:Update: the 75200 controller is a VASTLY better controller in terms of bike sized use. It made the Pitbike rip and accelerate smooth from a stop with zero tuning as of yet. I did still have to run the motor config with the chain and wheel attached for some reason but the bike screams now! With the 75100 set to 100a I could do one run across our warehouse parking lot and it would already be thermal throttling. With the 75200 set to 150a I was able to do 10 runs back and forth and it was only a bit warm to the touch. I couldn't get the Bluetooth connected for some reason yet so I don't have hard numbers but it seems to have solved the heat issue.
For anyone considering a mild scooter drive or a mild eskateboard the 75100 might be great set to 60 phase amps. If you want to run a bike get the 75200 or the 75300.

transposon said:Thanks again lanhill.
I'm going to go with the 75200 and Bluetooth module. Do you know if we need the v4 or v6 version bluetooth adapter? I wish Amazon had the 75200 available with prime shipping. Is flipsky.net the best place to buy the vesc?
jaykup said:Has anyone run the custom 75100 firmware (jaykup) on the 75200 controller? Does it work? Voltage/current/temp reading correct?
jaykup said:Does the 75200 come with the 75_300_R2 firmware?
chuyskywalker said:I picked up the 75200 but haven't loaded anything -- stock firmware. (And, sadly, the stock firmware doesn't have field weakening for some reason.)
chuyskywalker said:"75_300_R2 FW 5.2"). Happy to grab any info/etc if I can help out.
jaykup said:The main differences between the 75_100_V2 custom firmware and 75_300_R2 is:
- max voltage increased from 72 to 96
- specifies battery shunts (correct) instead of phase shunts (incorrect)
- phase filters disabled
- sane current limits
- corrected battery voltage reading (75_300_R2 reads slightly off by about a half a volt/a volt)
chuyskywalker said:The 75200 had proper support for my 72v battery -- it came preconfigured at 72v max, but I was able to bump it up to 86 without any kind of errors. (If that's what you mean.)
jaykup said:That's really interesting. When you update to 5.3 in the vesc tool staying on the 75_300_R2, can you see if you can still set the voltage above 72v? That firmware has a hardware limit of 72v so they've either modified it (which will go away with an update) or they are using the no limit firmware. If the latter is the case you should also be able to set amps to 900 for example (don't run it at that level haha)
jaykup said:battery voltage
temperature
ADC input works
comm port works (if you have UART metr that would be perfect)
motor detection gets reasonable values
jaykup said:Motor detection looks correct for a hub motor, so I think we are all set as long as you didn't have the hall sensors or motor temp connected.
Barncat said:It seems to me that the supplied short 3 wire cable in pic that's JST to female usb-c must be the problem. Aren't 4 wires necessary for data transmission? Plus, minus, and two center data wires is my understanding.
As we have discussed, USB uses a differential transmission pair for data. This is encoded using NRZI and is bit stuffed to ensure adequate transitions in the data stream. On low and full speed devices, a differential ‘1’ is transmitted by pulling D+ over 2.8V with a 15K ohm resistor pulled to ground and D- under 0.3V with a 1.5K ohm resistor pulled to 3.6V. A differential ‘0’ on the other hand is a D- greater than 2.8V and a D+ less than 0.3V with the same appropriate pull down/up resistors.
