What is the proper mAh for a 7.2v motor?
Hello,
I've been wondering what the proper mAh is for a 7.2v motor or is there any? Thanks, Theagerfiller |
RE: What is the proper mAh for a 7.2v motor?
The CAPACITY of the battery (mAh) bears no relation to the motor's nominal voltage. A 7.2v motor can be run with rather more cells (i.e. HIGHER VOLTAGE) than say a 6v motor. VOLTAGE in large part determines the amount of power one can get from a motor. Depending on the size/windings etc of the motor, with a 7.2v motor, one could safely use 8-cells (9.6v) and possibly more [9-10 cells (10.8v-12.0v)], but a 6v motor might well be limited to only 7-8 (8.4v-9.6v). Battery CAPACITY determines how long one can run whatever motor one uses (flight time being, essentially, battery capacity divided by current draw).
Hope this clarifies the situation, Cheers, Phil |

Capacity also influences efficiancy at higher power settings, because a larger capacity battery will waste less energy at high current draws than a lower capacity battery will at the same current draw.
