RE: How much of a difference does
Thanks m8....
It Just goes to show how overrated 90% of the brushless systems are... I can understand these high amp ESC for boats but for cars its just rediclius. I'm planing to get one of those amp meters and do some futher testing.... Im so tempted to try a ezrun 35a hot box on 4s.... Wonder how many volts can be pumped it to one.
My slash gets just over 60km/h on a 2s lipo, so if I could say run 4s and gear down to the same speed, the amp draw would be a lot less, and so would the voltage drop under load.... With the same mah rating I would have even longer run times....
I honestly think people don't understand there setups very well. I've been hearing a lot of talk abou running 6s.... But 6s is no faster on a 1800kv motor than 3s on a 3900kv motor, bet alone a 4300kv motor... But higher voltage setups with lower kv motors don't loose as much energy through heat, so there for are more efficient... And draw less current...
With in a few months I should have some tests finished and will post up some results on voltage drop, current draw, and battery c ratings
