ESC Controller for BLDC Motor

Other Hardware Motors, Mechanics, Power and CNC
1

For my project I am using a 24 V Brushless DC Motor (https://www.aliexpress.com/i/10000138586408.html?gatewayAdapt=4itemAdapt). I want to control the speed and direction of the motor with arduino( no potentiometer or position switch).
I have tried mutliple drivers from eBay(for example : DC 6-24V Brushless Motor Driver 1000W BLDC BLDC Controller ESC Power Tool | eBay) but haven't had much success integarting them with the arduino. Can someone please recommed an ESC driver compatible with this motor and arduino. Any help would be much appreciated

Hello,

For my project I am using a 24 V Brushless DC Motor (https://www.aliexpress.com/i/10000138586408.html?gatewayAdapt=4itemAdapt). I want to control the speed and direction of the motor with arduino( no potentiometer or position switch).

I was watching couple of tutorials (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOzE5F5vFGs) and found that controlling the BLDC motor will be similar to a servo motor if I were to use this driver.

Hence I bought this driver online to control the BLDC Motor ( https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/zoestore-dc-7-24v-200w-bldc-3-phase-brushless-esc-motor-driver-hallless-dc-motor-drive-board-speed-controller-regulator-with-potentiometer-rm14640/?utm_content=hero&verification=25a5c-81dbcc5f6b17589677fb51cb9ed8790eaa2cc347&utm_campaign=postsale_delivered&utm_medium=email&utm_source=kogan&activated=t)

I created a simple program to control theESC according to the servo. However upon connecting and running the program as recommended in the tutorial it did not work. The motor kept running at full speed regardless of the PWM signal from the driver.

Can someone please reccomend any solution or if there is any other better way to control BLDC motor with Arduino.

Arduino Code :

#include <Servo.h>

Servo ESC; 

int Speed; 

void setup(){
ESC.attach(9,1000,2000);
}

void loop(){
  Speed = 100;
  ESC.write(Speed);
}

Unfortunately that video doesn't say what ESC was used.

I think that controller is a different type, there is no indication it will work with a PWM/servo signal.

I think the one you want is this one :

Hi Unfortunately this one is rated for 6-14 V and I faced the same issue where I could not find the same for 24V

This one can deal with a 6S lipo (24V)
