EVX questions

Wondering on how to run a single 2s pack on the old evx speed control. I have a truck with a pair of stock 27t brushed motors, and want to run them on 2s (LiFe). No lvc, but I have the esc and I want cheap.

I have read that you can just make a jumper plug for one of the battery inputs, and plug the pack into other. Not sure if that is true, cause I think the lvc runs off one pack.

Any info will be handy...

Ok, messed up. This is an evx 2, not the waterproof blue model, but the yellow one. Not sure if the wiring is the same or not...

i'm pretty sure you just wire the 2 sets of leads in parallel.

edit: i take that back. i was thinking of another speed control. try it if you want though.

I know on the evx orange, and evx blue ones, you plug a jumper into the set of leads that doesn't run the bec. If you plug it in and it will turn on, put the jumper in the other set of leads. I know it works fine down to 3s, havn't tried 2s.

Is this what you're looking for? http://scriptasylum.com/rc_speed/_wiring.html (select EVX2 ESC)

Thief? Moi? Look in the mirror pal, because those original images look very familiar.

Thats it, had no idea that you had that on the speed calc site... I am guessing you have the ubec wiring in these cause you plan to run 4s? I guess I can leave the internal bec, as I will only run 2s.

I had a post on something like this.
It has been a long while though.

:sigh: All that work, and no one uses it.

Yeah, it assumes that the person will run 3s or more, so a UBEC is needed. Just leave that part (and the LVC) out.
