By far the best and simplest video to follow for this application. Thanks.

Thanks bud. I got mine going thanks to you. It doesn't seem to be running up to max speed but maybe it is. Can you advise on getting it to reverse with joystick down and forward joystick up? I thought the -255,255 took care of that but not what I'm getting

Hi Is it posible with this setup to detect a transition through zerro and turn on another pin on arduino to change direction and how can I program that? A great project. I am going to use similar ESC that has a brake which I intend to control with a separate channel. Thank you.

Nice project with many useful application, well done 👍👍👍 keep doing interesting projects

Does it make much difference which arduino used? Would i need 2 esc to run 2 motors independant or would one esc handle the two and arduino code motors independent?

Thanks for the demonstration! Could you please share what wires you used and what connectors?

Can the motors be controlled only by potentiometers or are the programmable control board and hall sensors, etc. a must? I am asking for bare-bones, absolute simplest controller with manual voltage regulator for different constant speeds. Or would that work on brushed motors only?

Is it possible to control reverse and brake with arduino? Need it for simulator rig. Willing to use it with encoder.

Can I do the same with an 800 watt hub motor? And can you recommend a driver card suitable for this motor ?

How can this be done with 2 motors such that they can both rotate independently (i.e. implementing turning)? And does the method you demonstrated allow for reverse?

Nicely done. Keep it up

So glad I found this tutorial, not had any joy hacking the firmware on the hoverboard firmware. Question for you, can you run another motor from the andruno with another esc

thanks for this tutorial i need this

could you use sbus or spektrum dsmx serial instead of pwm and remove the arduino at all??

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I used this as the basis for my robot, which has two motors (and two ESCs). Both ESC grounds went to a common ground with the Arduino ground, but I found that you do not need to connect the ESC 5v to the Arduino Vin (as you do at 6:38) if you already have a separate power source for the Arduino (as it looks like you do through the USB connection). My robot has the two motors "facing each other" on a common axle, so when moving the robot forward, you need to get creative in the Arduino code to set one of the motors to run in reverse by grounding the ZF pin on one of the ESCs. (I did this with a relay switch.)

Can you suggest good motor driver for a small car project. I want to use these BLDC motors from my old hoverboard. The motherboard of the board is a different one and i can't find and firmware hack for it online and i am not capable of writing it from scratch on my own. But i want to use these motors for the project, so best option is to use some good motor driver.

Is it possibly to put the motor in reverse also using the RC controller?

Thanks for nice demo . What kind of 36 V battery have you used to power the motors ? Can you give more details ?

Congratulation, good job. Your video is perfect.

Hello! Do you by chance not have the code for two such controllers to work from arduino?

Thanks for the code

Amazing!! I just wanted to know that will this code work for 2.4Ghz mini remote and other 2.4Ghz receiver for electric skateboard.

WOW thank alot bro

Dost !! -- this is very useful. I have a project to control a hoverboard motor using human thought.. your video will be useful .. thank you.. and keep it up!

Which arduino board/type is this?

Hi, where i can find transmit and receiver?

Hi, my hoverboard motors just vibrate when I try and control them via arduino or potentiometer. I tried this with two differents ESCs. Would you happen to know a fix to this?

hi.great video.i have use dual esc controller with remote to control twin hoverboard motors on my longboard before gets me to 10mph.im looking to make remote control car with perhaps 4 motors which I have from overboard.i have just bought ardino uno r3 kit and I have plenty 18650 cells.made an ebike battery 48volt so can split that for car.i had receiver from a drone and also a monitor black pearl with recover aerials.so hope to figure this out and build mdf shell for go kart

Thank you very much, i was looking for this because i want to use ebike controllers to power 2 hoverboard motors and build an eskateboard..... , now i can translate the rc output to the analog inputs on the controller that control the speed...... , the only part missing is brakes :-) , i guess i will try to change the code and if i detect negative input on the rc (lever going back) it will engage the braking pin on the ebike controller, thanks a lot :-)

I don't understand, with rc car esc it works? But other esc it didn't? So can I use a brushless esc to power these wheels? I want to make rc lawnmower. Thankyou

Can I use the 36-volt HoverBoard battery and use it with a 500W driver?

Nice bro

whats the code the on the arduino when testing out the LED at 4:10 in the video

So I figured out how to detect a transition through zerro and turn on pin 10 for my motor controller to reverse the direction. What puzzles me now is how to invert the PWM of the left side of the channel. This is my attempt at it so far I added this code before the: } return pulse; } if (pulse

how to connect two engines on these controllers, you may have helpful materials, I will be very grateful

Very helpful. What board are you using, do you have link ? Also will this work with an arduino nano ? Thank you :)

Nice job 👍 I am trying to build a electric assisted bike with an hoverboard motor but will the sensor of the moteur will I be able to pedal or the motor will block me ? And can I use a pedaling sensor with arduino to run the motor when I am pedalling ?

Still a great tutorial

thanks ! ;)

i follow your video, it work but it cannot reverse and brake . do you have code with reverse and brake system ... please share ... i am also apply it to build rc car using electric bike motor. i have no idea about code, just copy your. Thank you so much for this tutorial.

There are two versions of this speed controller ... The more expensive version could do away with the ardiuno .... I think.......maybe im wrong but not often . . great vid

Hey, Do you think you could give me the parts list that you used? And how would I connect a second hoverboard motor to the same controller?

The wire you connected vr to pin #5 has raised a question. I have a riorand esc and it doesn't have a vr identifier but does have a pwm pin. Im new to this so forgive the ignorance. Would connecting the pwm on the riorand to pin 5 accomplish same thing or should I connect it to a different pin?

Nice job. Question - I have two hub motors on the front side, but they move with different speed when they are connected to same arduino and power supply. Any suggestions on how to ensure the wheels move with same speed if they are moving just forward or backwards. Thanks. Any help would be appreciated.

did you manage to reverse the rotation ?

I need a help , in hoverboard configuration

can this control use reverse and forward and break ??

Opa consigo usar um joystick para controlar dois motores? Para um projeto de cadeira de rodas

I make dual motor dc with controler hoverbord, and i see your description,and i setup just make dual channel ino for coding or make coding for receiver too

Hello. On 4.46 its valid code or not??

Are the esc’s switchable? As in can the motor turn clockwise then counter clockwise based on RC signal?

hi, how do i connect 2 engines?

Thanks. My kids keep breaking their hoverboards. I took the wheels off and I will use them for my next robot!

how to reverse this engine

How can run without arduino

Hi. I need to implement this. Can we spoke in private message?

The esc will blowup

rotates both ways the code has rotation reversal

have you taken mechatronics? if yes then from which college?

Code pls

not all heroes wear capes...

Not working.

Esc link plaese

If your just trying to control the motor RC? why not just use an RC ESC? it's all ready figured out?

Boss code

It can forword and reword

"Is one Arduino, one ESC, and one receiver needed per wheel?"

You do control 1 motor and to control for 2 motors, so what?

I can do this without arduino.

one motor? how about two three four motors? everyone on youtube show only one motor :)

Hi there, I want to control my ZRS with a RC controlar... in other words, I need to do exactly what you are doing on this video. Can you send me a private message on my facebook page (facebook.com/ZipRush), I'd like to discuss that with you. Thanks in advance.
