How do I calibrate my ESC?

5/18/2017

If you have a brushless motor you’ll need to calibrate your ESC before driving it. Brushed motors should be calibrated automatically. When not calibrated an ESC will periodically beep.  When calibrated, it will beep a little song then stop beeping. See scripts/calibrate.py to see how this works.

You didn't even explain how to calibrate an ESC! What was the point of this article??

Check out docs.donkeycar.com for more info. And if you figure out a better way please submit a pull request. This is an opensource project. Thanks!
