    This guy needs subscribed if you rc. PERIOD. He explains every detail of an eventual necessity in rc.

    Been at it for a supper long time.
    You still keep expanding my knowledge and understanding when it comes to this addiction 😉👍🤙

    Damn dude.. that was a good one. No more plugging LEDs randomly into my balance plug

      If the load is low enough I wouldn't mind

      Most small LEDs draw practically nothing

    I would only do this if you can apply identical load to keep the cells balanced, eg running 2 identical fans from a 4s pack, between cell 1 and 2 and cell 3 and 4

    Hi guys, I have a question
    What does it mean by continuous rating power with rated voltage and rated amps. Does that mean that the hub motor will be the most efficiency point?
    But I heard that some people says the most efficiency point of the hub motor is around 75%-80% of maximum power where as continuous power is only at around 50% of maximum power

    Hi guys, I have 2 questions
    1- can pwm still be 100% if I reduce the speed limit to 60% in the controller setting when the throttle is still at 100% full?
    2- if I limit my 80A controller to 50A, when Im turn on power boost (20% extra torque) will the current exceed 60A or still 50A (the numbers is just random figures)

    I am running an extra 3s Lipo to power my 12V fans. Now I realize the BEC is a much better solution. It is lighter and probably cheaper too .... Next upgrade :-)

    can't you just wire them in parallel like if you want 2s from a 6s you just put cell 1&2 in parallel with 3&4 and with 5&6 making the load equal

    • @RCexplained

      No, you would dead short the 6s battery.

    I'm sure most people didn't even know this was possible. But yeah not a good idea unless you are using all the cells.

      I didn't know this was an option that was popular until I was asked about it several times.

    It should be obvious not to mid tap a LiPo battery.

    • @nelissuh
      @nelissuh 2 года назад +1

      Many use a Mid-tap to run extra fans on motor (on bashing cars or speedrunners). I would not do that either.
