Brushless Makita Mod (unsupported)

So.

First VESC powered Makita Brushless is a success! Thanks for that rabbit hole lol. I just sent it and updated to the latest firmware.

And @gmack…I’m gonna need your help with some data. The VESC Tool plots everything… and I think I just ran the motor from 500 rpm to 40,000

I’m currently running sensorless and yes, I know the vise is rusty. Also I have headlight and brake lights that connect to the vesc and work automatically. This might be really fun!

Now to figure out the PWM
