HobbyWing EZRun 80A Review

[himalaya]

Nice review. Hard to imagine how you tough guy can read that MOSFET part number hidden underneath the board.

Why didn't you get a 150A top model for a review? it's rated for 6S and has been proven strong here in China---- just don't buy their combos, the included motor is just a junk.

I bought a so called the HobbyWing SeaKing 180A for my boat waiting for spring to come, which is infact the EzRun150A, just the heatsink been replaced to a water cooling jacket. I also took it apart for some pics. It's using similar Onsemi(Motorola) MOSFETs seen in the MMM. Before reading this review, I was thinking the 80A may be using same MOSFETs as in the 150A but fewer count. Your picture amazed me how they do heat sinking......

Why didn't I get the 150? Simple, Mike doesn't have them yet.

You said the 150 is using the same FETs, but do they use the same number of them? Just curious...

Any idea what the voltage output on the bec is? 5v, 6v?

I'm not sure if it'll toast with 5s or not. This ESC hasn't seen power yet. I'm gonna run 4s on it for a while to see how the startup algorithm works and test temps. Then I'll try 5s.

Documentation says 5.75v.

The 150A uses 36 FETs, same as the MMM. Only the part numbers slightly differ.
