So while I've been waiting for the custom electric motor; I've been playing with the current electric motor that I have in my person so I can perfect the control module. I have connected a Pot to the breadboard which will allow me to control how much power to send to the motor. I have also been playing with my current Arduino sketch to visually output how much power I'm sending to the electrical motor. I also decided to change the colors of the lights to optimize the feedback of power from the motor.
I must admit that I'm quite pleased with the results! I've also decided to use the vehicle's OBD-II port to send signals to the Arduino board instead of tapping in to the cars existing wires. This should simplify the installation as well as the sketch required to control the ESC.
On a side note, I will be developing a different sketch for those who have older cars.
Enjoy the video!
Hello,
ReplyDeleteHow is this development going?. I'm also interested in developing an Electric Turbo.
