G+_Will O'Meara Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 So with Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ? and Bryan Burnett? doing all this quad copter stuff I figure this is as good time as any to ask this question. My roommate and I are working on building a car that will serve as a test bed for various control theory situations. We are using an arduino as the brains that we will load the control system on to. One such situation is a turbine drive/friction drive hybrid system and I cannot get the turbine ESC to arm using the arduino. I know that with arduinos ESCs can be treated as servos but the arming procedure involves going full throttle then back to zero several times and waiting for the beeps, I can only get the first beep to happen but I get nothing when I go full throttle. Does anyone have experience arming an ESC with an arduino that could help me out? tl;dr: How do I Arm an ESC with an arduino? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
