Hello everyone! I will be driving several BLDC motors using ODrive S1 using a laptop (running python3 and python-can) to communicate with the ODrives using CAN. I have mocked up a diagram based on what I learned from the docs, but wanted to make sure I’m not going to blow anything up.

Hi there! This looks absolutely perfect, nice diagram!

Only thing I could note is that you don’t need the USB isolator if the laptop doesn’t share a ground with the rest of the system.
