Question:...Tim, is there an on line compatibility chart or math formula you follow to find ........ motor size and ESC .......ESC and battery ........ motor / ESC and prop...etc.. thanks much for another helpful informational video .....
@TimMcKay562 жыл бұрын
Gary: That is a good question. I am not sure of any "one stop" chart for these matters. Instead, usually the ESC manufacturer has a chart for number of cells and servos that the ESC can handle. I usually "round up" if there is any doubt, i.e. go from a Talon 15 to a 25 if the motor has a bit more pull. But tech info on the ECS is most helpful. Finally, the tech support guys at www.HorizonHobby.com are very good at answering these sorts of questions. Chat function works well. Tim

Always a clear explanation of how to..... Thank you. 3 things; 1 When changing the servo settings, REMOVE THE PROP(S)!!!! 2 Reversing the throttle does NOT reverse the motor direction. 3 Why does reversing two wires change the motor direction? Because the motor "fires" in the direction of the sequential pules sent to the motor. If you write 1 2 3 1 2 3 A B C A B C The motor fires in the A-B-C direction. Now switch two wires say "A" and "B" the order becomes: 1 2 3 1 2 3 B A C B A C Notice the order becomes "C - B - A" and the motor runs in the opposite direction. This is not original to me but the best explanation of why changing two wires reverses the motor direction.

Good morning Maybe you made a video on connecting two motors on an airplane... On a twin electric engine, the ESCs must be connected together on a single channel? The left motor should turn left and the right motor should turn right? And should we put torque and thrust on the motors? I imagine that the propellers also have two directions. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

Here is my video on setting up two motors: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/erZpaqWZv8m8gXk.html For RC models, it really does not make a big difference if the motors run in the same or counter rotating directions. This is important with full scale aircraft with large motors like a P-38. Tim

I have a question Hope you can answer for me I am finding it hard to locate some electrics for small craft especially brushed set up Have you ever used a brushless/micro 1S system Receiver/motor/servo's in your Guillow builds? I know many use brushed motors and electronics for 1S, like in the Champ or Sport Cub, have you used the 1S brushless before? Thanks in advance
@TimMcKay562 жыл бұрын
Ed: As not too many people purchase the smaller motors for home builds (as they are used mostly for RTF models), I have not located any real micro brushless motors. Rather, I use micro brushed motors with gears, they seem to work well. See my recent video on where to buy these micro systems: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aat3d9iT2NHboXU.html Tim

what happens if we control the main motor using right side stick (bidirectional) channel 1 or 2? Does the motor spin in opposite direction if we pull the stick down?
@TimMcKay566 ай бұрын
It is possible to set transmitter with throttle on the right side (Mode 1). This has no effect on motor rotation direction. To change brushless motor direction simply swap any two of the three motor wires. Tim

@@TimMcKay56 wanted bearings for front wheels of RC car I'm sabotaging other Thrift store toys for pre teens but to use motors, need one going clockwise. I got it apart but it will never go back together. I don't resolder mini ICs either. Will keep destroying till I'm an expert. Local RC store has no brushless motors? It is a Mustang with double tires all around = 8. Helicopter in back window. Total of 8 motors. The project keeps me from spending time wisely on much more important inventions.
