Hi @Aeon, welcome to the forum
The motor you’ve linked to looks to be a reasonably standard brushless DC motor, so should technically be controllable by a speed controller like our Basic ESC 500. That said,
- the motor includes a hall-effect sensor (for measuring its rotation angle), which our ESCs do not have an input for, and are not set up to handle
- any position monitoring and speed matching you want to do would need to be accomplished with your own electronics and code
- the motor is specified as having a maximum supply voltage of a 12S battery, whereas our Basic ESC 500 can only handle up to a 6S battery
- this restricts the possible power supply you could use, which limits the total power output you can get from the motor
- from the motor’s product page, the “frequently bought with” ESC seems to be VESC-based
- VESC is open source, so maybe it doesn’t require proprietary software to interface with?
- As I understand it, VESC firmware provides more control than the BLHEli_S firmware used in our ESCs
