Axi 2204/54 Current Draw / Battery End State?
Hey folks,
My setup:
Axi 2208/54
Phoenix 10
Kokam 340 mAh
APC 8x3.8 prop
What kind of current are you drawing with this setup? I see folks are using 4 amp speed controls with this motor, but I drew around 4 amps just hovering... I'm sure it would be higher at full power (probably around 7 amps) but the thin wire in my jerry-rigged test setup caused too much of a voltage drop and my ESC kept cutting out.
Also... what is the no-load voltage of your batteries when you're done flying? Mine seem to be around 7.35 volts when my ESC starts cutting out, indicating a significant voltage drop under power. With another Phoenix 10 and an AXI 2208/34 I have the voltage can be around 6.5V no-load when done flying (same battery). I'm charging the battery right now to see how much goes into it... I'll let you know.
