m4ver13<p>30 minut zajęło mi lutowanie manetki do ebajka, wszystko dzięki genialnym opisom na aliexpress. Majfrendy opisały kabelki (plus minus sygnal), ja głupi w to wszystko uwierzyłem polutowałem ponakładałem termokurcze etc. podpinam pod sterownik i zero sygnału. Jako, że <a href="https://pol.social/tags/VESC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VESC</span></a> ma czasem swoje humory to grzebie w nim, jednak nic to nie dało, pomyślałem dobra otwieram i robie szybki druting, żeby sprawdzić czy faktycznie pomyliłem kable. Oczywiście za którymś razem musiałem się pomylić więc sprawdzanie musiałem zrobić dwa razy (i jak na złość dopiero ostatnia kombinacja była dobra). Wniosek jest taki, że albo chińczycy chcą robić ludziom na złość (szczególnie, że to manetka typowo pod surrona, a tam raczej pinout jest stały), albo płacą za mało swoim "niewolnikom". Niedługo puszczę coś więcej na temat VESC'a, bo to piękny przykład jak coś open-source potrafi być lepsze niż inne rozwiązania nie-open-source, przy tym mając tak fajne funkcje jak granie muzyki na silniku podczas jazdy, których oczywiście nie ma w innych sterownikach, bo po co :) </p><p><a href="https://pol.social/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>electronics</span></a> <a href="https://pol.social/tags/ebike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ebike</span></a></p>
