hi, good video, i wanted to ask, what discharge rate does your 3s have??

@rcbustanut2057 4 жыл бұрын

As an electrical engineer, let me say that you got lucky that you didn't fry your ESC. While the motor & servo can handle the extra voltage with no major issues, I'm pretty sure the ESC has internal voltage regulators to drop the internal voltage from 7.4V to 5V for some IC chips and most likely a 7.4V to 3V for the programmable microcontroller chipset. While a lot of these regulators can handle a wide input voltage, not all do. I definitely wouldn't go over 12V input, that would be a real gamble lol, specially for the 3.3V regulator.

@hybrid32494 6 жыл бұрын

The basic rule for longer run times is a larger capacity battery. That means you need more MAH capacity. The stock battery is 1500 mah, you can shop for a 2000 or 2500 mah battery, that would increase run time but your overall speed would remain the same. As long as you get a 7.4 Volt 2 cell limo with larger MAH rating. Does that help you?

After running the 3S lipo multiple times I have not broken anything. Although I run a pretty low discharge 20-30C 1000 MAHH pack. Overall if the esc was not built to handle the higher voltage it would just not activate itself. You can check for urself on any 2S powered ESC system, a 3S won't work unless the ESC itself has the ability to handle the voltage. Hopefully thermal protection will turn on if needed.

@hybrid32494 5 жыл бұрын

I try to reply to everyone on here, no matter what, you know, I appreciate the views and interest. The way batteries are rated today is with "C" rating, which stands for "discharge rate". Basically the higher the C rating the more juice (amps) the battery can deliver to the ESC and the esc will deliver to the motor. Generally this will result in more punch off the line and a little higher speeds. As you get a higher rated "C" lipo they also cost more. In general I stick to 30-40C, they are cheap and good enough. The included lipos are usually around 20-25 C rated btw.

im not sure if all WL Toys Rc models can handle a 3S, but this model can. Which model are you referring to?

The smaller scale RC models generally do not run 3S packs. You can always try putting one in and trying it out slowly, If it has a built in voltage limit then it will just not operate with a 3S pack.

Yes I know it's a 2 year old comment. But just in case someone is trying to research about this car and battery configurations, a 4s lipo will kill the ESC or the brushed motor or both. It can hardly handle a 3s, you might be able to get a few runs out of a 3s lipo before the ESC gets fried, or burns up the motor. In order to successfully and reliably use a 3s or 4s lipo in this car you'll need to upgrade the ESC and the motor (go with a brushless system).

what is the maximum current on a 7.4v lipo

@hybrid32494 6 жыл бұрын

There are two ratings on a LIPO battery, a continuous discharge rating and a peak discharge rating. This particular lipo I was using has around 25C continuous and 40C peak discharge. More expensive batteries could get to 100C peak and 50C continuous. I try to stay not more than 30C continuous to make sure my ESC/s do not get fried. Does that answer your question?

I have the Feiyue FY-10. Does this car has the same esc?

@hybrid32494 6 жыл бұрын

I just looked up the FY-10, it looks totally different from this model. IT says it has a 390 size motor, not a 540 like this RC in my video. Chances are the ESC/RX unit is also different in that case. Also says it's top speed in only 30 KPH.

Anyway,what is the maximum continuous current on a 7.4v lipo that can run the car you have?

@hybrid32494 6 жыл бұрын

honestly, I don't know. I don't think any info on max current exists on this ESC. I would say that above 30C there is no need anyway. You won't notice much of a difference, you're better off running a smaller 3S lipo for more speed than a high discharge 2S lipo.

top speed is ok, you can see it in the video. Not as fast as claimed but the control is pretty bad, you would not want to go over 35 mph ever.

Hello Do you think 7.4V 4200mAh 30c 2s Lipo will be good?

@hybrid32494 3 жыл бұрын

hey buddy! You could run any 2S lipo in this thing, it will come down to you being able to correctly fit it in the chassis. To fit a 4200 max pack you would need to get highly creative, for sure remove the rear wheel and possibly parts of the roll cage. But the system will handle it, no problem.

@hybrid32494 6 жыл бұрын

so your reverse works? If thats the case the ESC seems ok, maybe it needs to be programmed somehow again. Either way the easiest thing to do if you want an upgrade would be to buy a complete brushless system. Since the rc uses a 2 in 1 receiver and ESC combo you would also need a new remote system. Its probably still cheaper to just buy a whole new one of these, and keep the other for spares.

@hybrid32494 5 жыл бұрын

hello buddy!! Do you mean you need a new remote and charger? The remote is paired to the ESC, since it's a 2 in 1 unit. You can consider upgrading the entire system to run a separate ESC and receiver, or just buy a whole new one if you're not able to do.that. Any charger can be used to charge the lipo battery, as long as the connector fits.

you lost your remote??? the problem is this RC uses a 2 in 1 design ESC and receiver unit. I am not sure if another similar 2.4GHZ remote would pair with the receiver in the car. Generally you have to bind them in higher lever models, not sure if this is the case here.
