RE: RC Surfer
Thanks Indatube.....What are the average "run times' and what is the 'Amp recharge value' after a run.
With that info - we can calculate the average Watts draw per board - It would be interesting to see the Watt draw variance between the boards - and compare it to the hull designs.
This info could help formulate calculations, working toward the "MAVERICK DREAM MACHINE"
For Example -To simply compare the two boards in Kites example - both with equal run times of 20 minutes - But different cell capacity's 3s & 4s respectively - we can try to make an assumption of how many Watts will need per foot of board size.......
3s Board: 700mm - 28" - just over 2ft
5000mA's /20 minutes = 15 Amps/hour
15A x 11.1 v = 166.5 Watts
4s Board: 875mm - 35" - just under 3 ft
5000 mA's /20 minutes = 15 Amps/hour
15A X 14.4 v = 216 Watts
SO ! - A 'rough assumption' could be that for every 1ft of board size one would need 75 Watts of power - so a 4ft board could requite around 300 Watts on average. If we want to achieve a 20 minute run time using 5000mA's - we will need to run 5s 18.5v Packs).......5 ft board 375 Watts =6s /22.2
My guesstimate for the "Maverick Dream machine" would be a 5ft Gun - driven by a 750 kv motor - 6s 22 v
