New version 2.1 - iOS eSkate VESC app for standard and ackmaniac FW

jadatmag · December 23, 2018, 12:53pm

Tnx for the help.

My baudrate is at 9600 on the slave.

I’ll be looking for a better bluetooth module. Tnx a bunch!

You’re welcome. 9600 on the master too ?

jadatmag · December 23, 2018, 2:25pm

ohhhhhhh,

no, thats on 115200 because that’s what the Photon receiver needs, lemme check if I can get it to work on 9600 though

Edit: Ok so setting the baudrate on my master to 9600 puts my photon receiver out of work. But at 9600 baudrate on master and slave the app still won’t let me write settings.

A new bluetooth remote is on the way though.

You still won’t be able to program tho even with a new bt module since the baud rate is wrong

You need to setup 9600 bauds in VESC Setup AND in your BT Module. If your BT Module speak at 115200 and your VESC at 9600, this is not going to work.

Oof, that definitely sounds like a solution. I’m not equipped with arduino though and don’t intend to.

If you had a donate button I would use it. Your problem solving is relentless!

Thank you for your comment. Yes there is a donation link Thanks for that.

Does it work with the new focbox unity???

Is it possible to have a pass through on this app to make it possible to connect to the board from VESC tool on a pc like it is with the ackmaniac app for Android?

emmaanuel · January 3, 2019, 12:59am

I don’t have a fox box unity to try, but if it’s based on VESC firmware, it should work.

Hi, I didn’t know about this improvement on the ackmaniac android app. But yes, it’s a good feature to add. I add this to my todo list.

emmaanuel · January 20, 2019, 9:04pm

@carl.1 @onloop can you please push on your github the latest firmware source ? I have 23.40 and 23.41, but some users are having 23.42. I’ve added support to your board #raptor2 and #raptor21 with #focbox-unity #unity compatibility . Thanks

Is this using the onboard bt module or an external bt?

emmaanuel · January 20, 2019, 11:30pm

the onboard module. If you have trouble with that, let me know and use the “send debug log” function.

HighMasterGogo · February 15, 2019, 3:55pm

I’m running ackmaniac firmware version 3.103 and the app is reporting “Unsupported Version”?

emmaanuel · February 15, 2019, 11:16pm

Oh, that’s a new version. I’ll make it compatible this week-end

emmaanuel · February 16, 2019, 9:38am

It’s fixed

kampfhahn · February 16, 2019, 10:45am

Just found this App. Works very well, thanks! Will there be configuration profiles in the future?

emmaanuel · February 16, 2019, 10:52am

Yes, I’ve done a feature request on the VESC projet: https://vesc-project.com/node/207 . If somebody want to work on that, I’ll be happy to add this feature.

kampfhahn · February 16, 2019, 2:44pm

Cool! But why does it depend on the VESC? With Ackmaniacs Android App you can aready create different ride modes.
