Default RE: esc question


ORIGINAL: Jetskeeter

Thanks for the feedback folks. Ok. I checked the voltage on my 3s 1000mah 10c battery and the voltage reads 11.42 fully charged. I'm using the stock Esky charger EK2-0851 that came with the King 2. The other battery is a 1250mah 3s 12c and it is reading 11.46 fully charged. I'm charging it with a cheapie charger, a Mini-smart 2-3 cell lipo charger balancer. Do these voltages seem ok? I think now that maybe the Mini -smart charger is only good for 1000 mah lipo cause the model number say LPC-1000 so maybe I'm not getting a full charge on the 1250 ? Also I found out I didn't have my esc programmed right for 100% power at max throttle.
I honestly stand by my original answer........ Your batterys are not getting fully charged. After running any of my 3 cell lipos and putting them on the digi voltmeter i usually see a voltage of around 11 volts. Someone can explain it better than I can but usually when you run the lipo down to a certain point (say 10V) and then let it rest it will jump back up to the 11 to 11.5V reading. If you tried to use it again it would immediatly drop back down to the 10V or even closer to the 9V readings. Any way you can charge your batterys using a verified charger? LHS?? Buddy?
