Hello everybody,
In the spec. it is specified that:
Cells: 2-3S (Auto Detect)
Does it mean that if i put 2S or 3S lipo i don't have to program manually the controller ?
Thanks
|

Yes, just as you have written. The lowest secure voltage of 3S lipo is about 9 V (with no load) and a fully charged 2S is about 8,4 V, so the ESC can easily distinguish 2S lipo from 3S one.

A review claims that you can program either nimh or lipo, but the description only mentions lipo. Does anyone know if it defaults to lipo? If it defaults to nimh then tbdchess will have to program it.

Correct, the ESC automatically detect the battery, no changes is required on the esc, no pograming required.

Yes you dont have to program this esc nothin' as this one meant to be a plug n play esc. So it doesn matter if you plug in 2s or 3s lipo, it will work as a charm. Trust me, I already using about tens of them. Thanks.

Exactly, no programming, the ESC senses the voltage at the start and sets the cut-off voltage accordingly. So, do not start with an empty battery... makes some sense, right?

It is. At its thickest, where the power and signal cables are located, it is about 9MM thick. It is also about 2.3CM (23mm) wide and 4.3CM long (43mm long) not including the excess heat shrink hanging over the end. The average thickness is about 5MM. Hope that helps!

Yeah, you're right about that. Even with the shrink tubing removed the board is 4.8 mm from top component to bottom component. But the real tall part is the capacitor at the battery wire end* from the top of the cap to the bottom of the servo cable beneath it is 7.5 mm.
The naked board is 23 mm long and 17 mm wide.

Hello Schorhr,
Have 2 of the 2 little ESC. Size is 35x18x7,5mm. The ESC alone is only 5mm thick (with Shrink) but the condensor ( cable) at the one end is 7,5mm thick.

No. Not accurate. The flat part of the ESC is 5mm thick with shrink tubing and all.
The capacitor on the end is 8.2 mm including tubing and the receiver wire which is routed over it.
capacitor to end-of-tubing is 43 mm. Width is 17.5
The PCB length is 24 mm, with capacitor it becomes 36mm.
There you go!

If you know how to program atmega8 processors, you could write new software so it can reverse like you want. That is not a small feat at a ll though. The simple answer is no, you'll have to buy a controller that is more expensive for no good reason.

i like these but they dont work with a trainer cord (buddy box). I have one of thies and 2 20a, none of them work with my budy box but my other brand becs work. It seems when i flip the trainer swich on the master the speed control thanks its lost signal for that split second and dosnt reingade after the buddy box is on line. Any idea on how to fix this?
|

I doubt this is due to the controller. Loss of signal is a known-to-occur condition in RC, no matter how you cause it. This controller can handle that, you can test easily by turning of the Tx and then back on again. You are either doing something else wrong (connect a servo in parallel to see what the signal is doing, if you can move the servo it gets no signal). Or are you a competitor looking to discredit this product? You could very well be.

I ordered 2 sets of this ESC and the 2204 motor. Both would not start up but would jerk around. If I spin the prop with my finger then the motor will run it if I keep the power up. I hooked one of the ESC's up to a blue wonder and it runs the motor fine. I wish I could find out why it will not start up the 2204 motor.

also make sure your battery is full when you start your motor. The startup sequence may draw too much current, resulting in difficulty starting up.

It sound like a timing issue, what you can try is to put the throttle stick to full throttle and then connect the battery to the ESC, when you hear the first "beep" pull the throttle stick back to the "0" throttle ( lowest position ). That tells the ESC the high and low throttle range. Hope it works for you.

This ESC is ****. Chirps, screeches and stutters on start-up... takes over half throttle to start spinning. Throttle down is likewise rough. Running it with hexTronik 20gram 2300kv motor on 2S lipo. Not recommended.

War, if the motor spins at full throttle but not at low, then the problem is not with the ESC, but either the combination of ESC and motor, or the motor only. It sounds like you are straining the motor too much for the power it receives.

Hi! Or it could mean that you have the ESC to close to the receiver. That is always a problem. Just move them apart as far as possible. That has solved 99% of all my glitches on 35Mhz.

I bought this ESC and connected it to a new turnigy C1822 brushless motor. When I plugged the battery in, it only beeps once(w/throttle off). When I throttle up the engine jumps around and "chirps" then dies. It is almost as if the magnetic fields were fighting each other. I tried on another motor with same results. I'm thinking a bad ESC?

It seems like one phase isn't soldered to motor correctly. Especially if you are using connetors between esc and motor, check if it is everywhere well soldered*-) Otherwise one phase would be badly soldered inside esc to fet-transistors.

Thanks for your reply...
... was thinking the reason why generally the BL motors have three colored wires! Anyway, now I understood that its only to control the rotation direction. I must have a close look experiment, as a physicist, in order to get details before connecting to BEC or ESC. Just waiting for the BLs to come on my working desk!
Anyway, your information helped me much!

The brushless motor is not polarized (it is allmost like a thriphase AC motor). Connect the three wires from the motor to the three black wires from the esc. (If motor turns wrong way, change two of the wires) If your motor has only two wires, it is a brushed, polarized motor, and this esc is not for you. The red and the black wires from the esc is for batteryconnection.

Important!!!ESC is programable!!!I have searched in web an i found that the controller is programmable.Possible options:- LIPO-mode (auto selection 2/3 cells)- NIMH-mode- Break on / offTo program this controller you have to move transmitter throttle to full position.Now connect battery to controller.Wait some seconds, than you hear:*peep* - *short pause* - *peep**pause**peep*peep* - *short pause* -*peep*peep**pause**peep*peep*peep* - *short pause* -*peep*peep*peep**pause*this sequence will repeat...When you want to use NIHM cells, you have to move throttle to off position when you hear the first *beep*beep*. Than you have to wait for a longer *beeep* and a short *beep*. That's all. You can disconnect battery now.When you want to select LIPO mode, start from the beginning (throttle full, connect battery, listen to the beeps)At the time when you hear the first single *beep* move throttle to off and wait for*beeep* and *beep*.When you want to switch Brake On or Off, start from the beginning, then wait for the first *peep*peep*peep* within one sequence and put throttle to off. Wait for *beeep* and *beep*.Note: When you connect battery and throttle is in off posit
