Are VESC motor parameters specific to motor or does the VESC influence them as well.
Or in real world terms, if I have good parameters for a motor in one VESC, can I use the same parameters if I replace the VESC with a different model?
In my experience vesc type, cable length, even connector influences them. Even firmware version had an influence.
However only by a few percent
And they can be off by 20% or so and still work well
So in real world, copy paste is not a problem if the values are good in the first place
@Jan12 I do have one thing to add: make sure if you do that to simply copy the main motor parameters over. DO NOT backup the entire config and then load it onto a different model VESC. This instantly (bang upon throttle input) killed a 75200 I had when trying to use config from a Spintend ubox 100a. It was a particularly problematic motor which I couldn’t get working on the new VESC, so I had the bright idea to copy the whole config of the working one. BAD IDEA… 
Sound like it is not a great idea in general.
My 6374 has a bit of a stuttering start at times.
Fixed that on another ESC a while ago, but cannot remember the values I changed.
If the motor stting were purely “motor”, it would be nice to just export as XML and be done.
But it does not sound like its that easy.
Reduce the motor resistance of the detection by 10-20%. If that is not enough, set the observer type to orthega orthogonal and the start type to fast start. Then it will always start up smoothly.
