I'm a little confused but I have some questions.
Regarding what finnster is saying with equal power setups, the HV/LC (high volt low current) setup will cause less heat to the ESC, wires, connections ect. from less current flowing through them. You could even get away with a less amp capable ESC, wire of higher resistance, ect. This is correct right?
However, with the motor the total wattage that is being put to the motor, whether it be by HV/LC or LV/HC, is not flowing through the motor but being converted to mechanical power. Therefore the efficiency at which it converts the wattage to mechanical power is the diciding factor for heat. Is this correct?
The higher turn motor has higher resistance and that is why, even though it pulls less current, it will not create less heat at same power level unless it is more efficient. Is this correct?
Trying to understand this better.
Thanks.
