What's your point?

Yeah, I just want to make sure some people realize that simply adding more voltage on an existing setup will just increase current. You need to increase the motor winds quite a bit when you increase voltage if you want less current.

and/or regear ...

So I was trying to make a point that gearing wouldn't solve the whole incresed current with increased voltage problem and you needed to increase motor turns.

Here's a must get for your CC HV setup:

Thanks goes to Serum for the link

Well, there is actually a pretty big possiblity that I'm giving up the whole high voltage setup.

Instead, I'm just going to run 4S with a Mamba Max ESC. The reason is because I found flightpower packs which have a much better current rating than the cells I was going to use. Also, I'm going to temporarily run a Mamba Max in my G2R until the Monster Maxx comes out, so I'm just going to transfer the Mamba Max to the CRT.5, so I won't be buying all these ESC's.

However, if I do, I'll keep that in mind for sure! Thanks

Which flightpower packs are you referring to?

Does anyone know what cells FMA is using in their new Cellpro Revolution LiPo packs? The prices seems pretty reasonable for 20C cells:

I've been pondering on trying the mamba maxx but I would have to buy a whole new set of lipos and it doesn't like NEU motors so I decided to give the HV a try again. I just picked up a HV110 and one of those adapters (Hopefully the wife doesn't notice :028: )

Any updates on the HV110 with the adapter? Did it fix the throttle brake issues.:032:

I'm looking for a HV esc for a speed project I'm working on a 5-6s+ rc18 and I may try 6-8s in the CRT.5 with a front wing and go for a 1/12th scale record?

FWIW, I'm experimenting with Kontronik Jazz controllers in my cars. So far I've been pretty happy with a 40-6-18 in my RC10 on 3S, and this controller can do upto 6S.

I've got a 1:8 conversion in the (seemingly never ending) pipeline that I plan to power with a Jazz 55-10-32 and 10S lipo.

Hi, one of my other project cars is a RC-10L2. I have on hand a Feigao 380c 13t(3125 KV). As a test I once put that motor and a Mamba 25 in my Yokomo YR-F2 (6 cell nimh) and it performed much like a 19t brushed. The Mamba 25 barely got warm. Do I dare put the Mamba 25 and the Feigao 13T in the RC-10L2 with a 4s lipo (20c)? I do know the instructions say that 4s lipo is " at your own risk". Am I going to smoke my Mamba 25? Thanks, Don
