I am new to pixhawk and need advice on connections. I have 2 ESC’s. One basic remote control buggy ESC, and a flipsky 75200 Pro V2 VESC. I want to connect the Flipsky 75200 Pro v2 VESC to my Pixhawk 4, so I connected the CAN1 port on the pixhawk to the CANHCANL port on the VESC. I connected SBUS RC Port on the pixhawk 4 to a RC reciever in hopes that I can use the remote controller to control the VESC through the pixhawk. What are all the steps I will need to get this setup to work? What are all the parameters I need to set? My goal is to make a pixhawk autopilot guided rover.
I also want to know how to connect the generic ESC to the Pixhawk 4. Please provide me with advice on how to do so.
It’s a good idea to familiarise yourself with everything in the dev guide, its a long boring read but you will find it explains most questions you have and future questions. I’ve linked the CAN bus section below, give it a read and try some things out. Feel free to ask things if you’re still struggling after reading
Hi, I read this page but am still confused on the connections and how to get this working, as I cannot find any sources of this happening before. I have a Flipsky 75200 Pro VESC that has. CAN port and want to control it through my pixhawk 4 using a radio controller so that i can later make it autonomous. I have connected both these devices together, but get no indication that they are working together or recognize each other. Im unsure of the steps to take after I connect the two. Right now, i have the CAN1 port on the pixhawk connected to the GND/CANH/CANL/5V port on the VESC. What are the next steps I should take?
