Mine too...



I'll still probably get one if its only 5s. I'd just get more than one if it handled 6s w/ no issues.

Pretty much everyone is using 30v fets. 6s is getting pretty close and does not leave much headroom for voltage spikes. Some fets handle over voltage better than others. The manufacturers do not address areas beyond the specs so you just have to test them and see. So far these fets are incredible. The better the circuit the lower the spikes and the better the chances, but braking battery regen can still be an issue. If the battery is full and will not accept the regen charge, the voltage can go really high, really fast. Just like motor flyback current that needs a diode or a rectification circuit like our G11, if you do not give the current somewhere to go then voltage spikes can be off the map.

We will know shortly. I am pretty excited about this market and with everything else finishing up we have time now to look at some new challenges.

IF you really need 6s or more and this will not handle it, we will build one that does. That is why we are here learning.

i really need 6s :)

I would like 6s. But I would settle for one that will do 5s now. If you can do that you might have my money twice. One now and again later when you make a hv model.

Yea, I really need a 6S controller...Hell, 8S would be even better. :)

Perfect attitude.. truly awesome.

You ROCK, dude. We need a Hi-Voltage version of the R1MT, even if you could design ones as limited quantities!!!!

I love 6s controllers. I have a use for even more lipo batteries on a truck as
well. If you could do one with more that would be awesome. You would have
my money for that. I am in the market for a 12s esc now. You can sell them
all day long for 500 a pop to. :D

A car based esc with 12s capability, I'd be on that like a 5yr old at a candy clearance

We just need a controller over 6s capacity. You think you can do it soon?

Prez, is the pc interface (hotwire) needed to set the lvc over 3s? Reason I ask is I would like to pick up the r1 pro and try it in a truggy on 5s while I wait for the r1mt to be released. I see the esc listed at some sites as backorder but dont see the hotwire anywhere. Also what is the street price of the hotwire?

thanks

Hi,

I'll join in the line behind squee for 8S !

you guys really wanna run 8s setup's?
thats plain crazy.
i will be very happy if it does 4~5s and stay nice and cool.
i like the fact that tekin is testing different types of motors.
i think a 2000Kv will be great for me in my truggy.
as long as its around 70~75mm long and 36mm thick.

The reason why everyone wants 6s+ is because they can run higher wind motors for less current. Less current means less losses and heat. Less current also means that the chosen batteries don't have to have such a high C rating, which then lets you use cheaper cells...

Not really!:)
