SimpleFOC + Cheap BLDC Driver (with Arduino nano)

Follow
狐の工作室 / Fox Factory

I like to build cosplay props and robotics.
I have always wanted to use BLDC as a servo, so I took on this challenge to learn.

Sensor: AS5600 (I2C)
Motor: 5010360KV
BLDC Driver: Cheap one from Amazon. You can probably get it cheaper on Aliexpress.

This driver uses JY01A as a controller and JY21L as a driver for MOSFET (specs unknown).
I removed the JY01A and connected an Arduino NANO instead.

I ran SimpleFOC with "6PWM setting". Oddly enough, the default 2% deadtime setting seems to shortcircuit the MOSFETs. At this time, a very large current is flowing. (Do not connect a LiPo or any power supply without current limitation! (It will probably catch fire) So, I changed the dead time setting 2% to 9% and the unwanted current is gone.

I am happy with this result.
Precice, fast, powerful and silent! (witch is i always wanted)
I will try to use this to build something next.

If you have any questions, please leave comment.
Thanks!

*I am learning English. Sorry if there are any oddities.
