Interesting, seems like the 1410 motor and sidewinder prefer taller gearing on 2s lipo, than 3s lipo and lower gearing? Or are we seeing the bec heating up the sidewinder on 3s, as it tries to get the 3s lipo voltage down to 5-6v?
I plan to swap a MM in on the 2wd pede I run the 3800 motor in. The sidewinder just seems to get too hot. I could try an external bec and see what that does for temps.
Different voltage should not bother the mmpro as it has a switch bec. And the temps look pretty stable regardless of the voltage.
So I have to think the sidewinder is heating up due to the bec, and not really having issues with the motor load.
I think I will do some testing on my setup. I do not have an eagle tree, but I do have a temp gun. I will run 2s and 3s, and gear both for the same overall speed.
Should I post my results here? Or would you prefer I post them in my build thread?
Anyways, good info, nice to see the graphs and will be interested to see how the 1410 compares with the 1415.
