All, the ones which I have...starting from gen1 up to the latest. I have brains from various generations, so I built a simple fixture and tried them all.
No separate LVC, just bench testing with load and receiver pack.

Thank you Artur, did someone provide a gen3 for you to test?

Sweet. Assuming it all still works fine once the brain is reconnected to the/a powerboard, you would need to use a seperate LVC to protect your lipos (since the built-in one is turned off)? That was what I was getting at before really. You never cease to amaze me with your electrical wizardry.... :intello:

Gen3 the one with 30 Fet's, correct?

DrKnow65 01.12.2008 07:23 PM

Yes, the newest version. Are there more than 3 generations, or less?

I've seen 4 variations so far...

I've tested 2 modified controllers with 6S for 30 minutes, running up/down/brakes with no problems. Have not tested unmoded ones.

MM mods
 
I just sent one of my MM esc's in for mods. I'm hoping to run 5s in a 1/8 buggy when I get it back. Does that seem realistic? Reliable? I'm running it now on 4s with an un-modded MM and so far no problems. I was running an 18t pinion and it got pretty warm after 8-10 min really heavy bashing, didn't thermal though. I switched to 14t and there's very little heat.

What motor are you running?

ilpufxit 01.12.2008 08:36 PM

Motor
 
Its a Feigao 8xl. Around 30kv if I'm not mistaken.

8XL (kv2084) at 5S would be too hot...

Mod2 requires two ESC's and as result doubles number of Fets. More Fet's - more Amps.
