  • I was told not to do this! But I decided to take the Risk to make this Video! 15,000mah, 100c Gensace Lipos Vs ZD Racing EX07. These Lipo's on paper can discharge 1500 Amps each!
    15000mah x100c/1000 = 1500A!
    The RC Kiwis had an issue with their ESC going up in smoke. They were told not to use high power lipos... well, here's my thoughts!

      Who cares if it's not licensed it's a hot-rod! Literally the only part of the Hoonicorn body that is still stock 65 mustang is the coupe roof! Who are you going to get licensing from? Ken Block? He didn't serial number the car as his own and it's definitely not a 65 mustang anymore soooo..... not a Ford either. No one person built the Hoonicorn so it's the worlds car! IMHO

      @JAKOB1977 2 года назад

      your so wrong if you dont think the higher amp in a batterypack delivers more current.. it certainly does.
      and that goes for both Liion cells and LIPO packs.
      same goes for power tools.
      if you take a impact drill or impact wrench and use fx a 18v 2000mah pack versus 18v 6000mahbattery-pack.. you get more torque / impact if everything else is equal and you not current limited with the higher amp pack.
      if you unsure' then use an RC power meter.. it very clearly displays it that your amp draw is higher with more mah if anything is somewhat equal.. so the vendor is certain correct when they claim that higher amp rated cell or cell for quadcopters with very high C rating, can reach higher peaks with the risk of choking the ESC. and if you wanna use such cells then use a beefier ESC
      So no, it ain't just longer runtimes, you will also get more wattage potency with a higher mah rated pack.
      Funny how many that get this wrong in RC and also in many powertools.

    @BangForYourBuckRc 3 года назад

    Great job on this analogy Dr.Phil! The gauge size of your wiring, from battery, to esc to motor is also a very important factor as far as heat transfer. Bigger wiring =better heat transfer = cooler motor, and cooler esc. What you did seems totally acceptable to me, because your still staying within your limits! And good heavy wires make limits more tolerable. Fun video Phil⭐️! Wicked fun car! Wish I had one👊🏼👍🏻🤘🏻

    Tomley your presentation and explanation of the RC power system is perfect, very clear and to the point. I'm a former auto technician and HGV tech. Class 8 diesel in my part of the world lol. I think ZD just doesn't want the risk of overheating due to longer run times with the bigger battery is my guess. Amoril said the same to me went their esc and motor gave up on 3s I used a 35c and they wanted 25c!

    The esc didn't do the thermal cut off properly on the rckiwis car probably & burst into flames that was the cause while yours is functional as you noticed the fan wasn't moving at all.
    A mod worth doing i guess is getting one of those generic 120mm fan shrouds that are sort of a mesh net & cutting it down too size and gluing it onto the fan or getting some sort of mounting for it if you cant screw it down with the fan without having longer screws sorted out for it.

    That was a great analogy, Tomley! 😃
    You just forgot about the entropy: as something works it loses energy, generating heat. (That applies to the batteries, esc and motor.) So it all depends on how much heat it generates and how good is the cooling... In this case I believe the esc doesn't have a trustworthy cooling system... The fan should never stop like that! 😬
    Anyway, fantastic bashing!!! 😃
    Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

      Yes very true... I was trying to keep the video as short as possible. I did actually mention heat... but it was not easy to put in to the explanation about it being like a normal car... so I just mentioned ‘load’ and left it as that 😎

    • @justinjones5281
      @justinjones5281 3 года назад

      Yeah the cheaper stuff is less efficient so they heat up the more energy the use. You can pull any Chinese shitty esc apart and see the garbage contacts. They use a plaster that hardens instead of nickel soldering. Copper blends instead of copper or zinc.

  • @wordreet
    @wordreet 3 года назад +5

    More mah just means longer duration, and a higher C rating means that the motor can draw those amps down more quickly if it needs to, so you might get a bit more punch, "initial acceleration". But an electric motor will only take what it needs. So if you have an ESC/motor combo, that's your control right there, it won't take more than it needs.
    The biggest difference you can make to a motor, and an ESC, is if you change the voltage. So that would be more or less cells in the pack. When we run older/cheaper RC vehicles with brushed motors, we can add cells and make them faster, though the motor and the ESC will burn out sooner. But in either case, a reasonably up to date ESC will cut out if given too much voltage, won't it?

    • @TomleyRC
      @TomleyRC  3 года назад +2

      I think these cheap 150A ESC’s are pretty good, but because of the lack of quality control, there is a high percentage that go ‘pop’ than your more mainstream brands.

    Thanks for the vid tomley!
    The ex07's stock ESC is just a rebranded Surpass Hobby 150 amp 6s ESC. I got one and tried it in my Limitless with stock gearing.
    It did heat up so fast, I had to stop running it before it burns..
    In short, that stock ex07 ESC is not for something bigger than 1/8 scale, and also not for high speed gearing. The amp draw could burn it..
    I hope zd racing improves it.
    Or to be better, just buy the roller version.

      This is a common misconception. Your RC car runs on watts . Watts are volts x amps. Battery might be the same voltage...but because it has higher mah value it means it does provide more watts at full throttle.
      I've tested this on my 4tec2 and will get faster top speeds with a larger mah heavier battery.

    Gr8 content my friend…. Your explanation of RC batteries is spot on ….. those are the biggest batteries I’ve ever seen as far as MaH ratings… I don’t recall if you gave the price of those Gynormous batteries but I’d like to know … thanks for sharing! 😎👍🏻💯

    hey tom, i also have an ex07, and the only way the esc managed to burn out was me doing like 4 high speed runs full wide open throttle, then chucking a few high speed drifts, maybe you should try that as an extreme torture test

    ? Series battery s c rating doubles or remains same? awesome vid loving videos keep up great analogies you nailed it 💯👍 subscribed

    • @TomleyRC
      @TomleyRC  2 года назад

      I think the C Rating will stay the same as I’d say that is more of a ‘science’… and. It something that will change that easily… but I’m not 100% sure. Cheers for the support 😎👍

    Not sure if thats little bits of dust thrown up but it looks like whisps of tire smoke.

    Follow up vid suggestion: Short out the terminals on the ZD racing 3s pack and measure the current + wattage to see what it ACTUALLY puts out. Even money says it doesn't come close to the rated max even under those conditions.

    • @TomleyRC
      @TomleyRC  3 года назад +1

      Yeah agree... although 5000/35c is pretty crap anyway :)

    Need to see a speed run with those batteries.

    • @TomleyRC
      @TomleyRC  3 года назад +1

      Yes, I expect a couple more MPH... so maybe close to 70mph

    Great video Phil gens ace should have a discount code for tyres , l bet two good runs on them should sufficiently rubbish the tyres

    • @TomleyRC
      @TomleyRC  3 года назад +1

      These are a pretty hard compound. But I reckon if you maxed out the run time on the Lipos they’d not last too long lol

    The fan on the esc needs a better protective screen on it.

  • @TheRealHoltzy
    @TheRealHoltzy 3 года назад +1

    Hmmm, sounds like the ESC has been mis-programmed to allow it a higher burst draw than the internals can actually handle. This is the only way I can see a bigger C rating messing up an ESC. This is also a potential problem as it means that the ESC 'could' overload the batteries before the ESC. You could replace the motor with a lower KV to reduce the chances of the motor asking the ESC for more than it can take

    as an ex-mechanic by trade, the way you explained everything was spot on! good job my friend! you'll need to take that beast of a car to the airport strip one day when you get a chance and really let it reach it's potential. great for drifting i must say! cheers for the cool and informative video!
