Mamba esc's and motors

[NoControl]

Antbody know if MM or MMM can work with a brushless sensored motor minus using the sensor of course?

[Jabe]

Yes it will work, i have used MM with LRP X11, but it had cogging on start, i had to adjust advance to 0 from esc and from motor.

Cool thanks, do also happen to know if you can still get a signal from the sensor. I only ask because I wanna use a motors sensor to monitor the motors rpm on my logger.

I doubt it, the sensored motors use a hall-effect sensor to generate a signal- the sensor has to be plugged into a sensored esc for it to interpret that signal & 'see' the rotor posistion. Unless the logger is capable/ compatible with hall sensors it probably wont work.

The Eagletree loggers do get rpm data somehow though- voodoo magic I believe.... :/

Hmmm hopefully one of novak guys will answer this.

If you send a 5v source to the hall sensors you can get a signal out. I think the eagle tree tach is just a hall sensor as well, so you may be able to tap the digital output of one of the sensor wires and use it.

[What's_nitro?]

^^ Yep. The hall sensors need a power source to produce a signal.

Looking at my ET logger, you could totally tap the sensors built in your motor and use them.

Tried MMM with several sensored motor, have zero problem driving them.

Hall sensors works with magnetic field, the Eagletree logger BL RPM sensor connects to 2 of the 3 motor wires, filter high frequency components and send the polarity(phase) changing signal to the logger, it has no Hall sensor.

Yea thats what I was thinking, since my sentry has a HES for sensorless motors and then a cable for sensored, and thats kinda why I wanted to know if it would be possible to use the built in sensor to track rpms with out having to glue magnets onto rotating parts.

The eagle tree also has a hall effect tach available, so it has the capability to work with internal sensors as a tach.
