Since my tried and true MMMv2 decided to catch on fire...I stepped it up an purchased a XL2 for my Muggy conversion with a 1717 castle motor. So I did a short run today with a few blips of the throttle...no where near WOT. The XL2 is a beast; however, from the get go it does have some cogging. Settings are default.
I've read other posts and I am still not entirely sure if I'm calculating the ripple correctly.
Max ripple = 1.97V
Max voltage = 24.7 V, ave = 24.4, min = 19.4V
Max current = 239.3 amps
Max Watts = 4635
Temps were all low - logged max esc = 92 F
The run was with a 17T pinion with a 48T spur.
calculated ripple I get is 1.97/24.7 = 0.079 or 7.9% which I think is okay.
The only thing that worries me is the cogging, which is not horrible but it persists and my batteries are older Hyperion G3 Ex rated at 45C 5000Mah. I have the CC cappack, 8mm CC bullets on everything, and a CC pro BEC.
What do you guys think?
