Make sure you select your board in conf_general.h
In case of VESCular6 and VESCuino board, we pre-define the "HW_SOURCE" and "HW_HEADER" value using macro command (Board Select Here!!!) as below.

Prerequisites
On Ubuntu
Install the gcc-arm-embedded toolchain
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-gcc-arm-embedded/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install gcc-arm-embeddedAdd udev rules to use the stlink v2 programmer without being root
wget vedder.se/Temp/49-stlinkv2.rules
sudo mv 49-stlinkv2.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
sudo udevadm triggerOn MacOS
Go to the GNU ARM embedded toolchain downloads Website and select the mac version, download it and extract it to your user directory.
Append the bin directory to your $PATH. For example:
export PATH="$PATH:/Users/your-name/gcc-arm-none-eabi-8-2019-q3-update/bin/"Install stlink and openocd
brew install stlink
brew install openocdBuild
Build and flash the bootloader first
Clone and build the firmware
git clone https://github.com/vedderb/bldc.git vesc_firmware
cd vesc_firmware
makeFlash it using an STLink SWD debugger
make upload2. Firmware upgrade to multiple VESCular6 at once using VESC-Tool
