HV Maxx ESC

[suicideneil]

The HV-Maxx ESC is designed to be used only with the 550 sized HV4400 motor that ships with the HV-Maxx Brushless Motor System. Connecting and operating the SS5800 or the SS4300 motors with the HV-Maxx ESC will cause the motor and/or ESC to overheat and will most likely cause damage.Using any type of motor other than the 550 size HV4400 motor that ships with the HV-Maxx Brushless Motor System (#3020) will void the warranty on the ESC and/or motor.

Were also not supposed to run over 3s on the Mamba...

I was planning an HV controller with one of their slower motors (I think the 8.5) so I could still use my 3s packs, and have the sensored smoothness.

I haven't done it yet (time and budget) but others have. Electric Thunder over on RCZone did it with 12 cells I believe.

Edit: spelling

Yup, 12 GP3300s on my SS5800 (ESC didn't even get warm). That thing SCREAMED in my Rustler. But it did get quite hot (didn't temp it, but it was probably a good 170 after two or three passes out in front of the house). It was also pulling some neat wheelies. Keep in mind this was with a stock rotor (I think, or the velociti rotor; been a while since I cracked that motor open). With a sintered rotor, you'd probably fair MUCH better.

In fact, up until recently, I was running my TT-01 with the SS5800 motor + velociti rotor on the HV ESC. Ran flawlessly; smooth as butter. The ESC was errrr... a tight fit though.;)
