flier 400 amps

[Lone-Wolf]

happy for you. hopefully it will continue. asked srilash to contact flier and keep them updated. any idea of your amp draw so far? thanks for taking a chance. i spent close to a year messing with fightercat units. who could expect leaking water cooling blocks??!!! anyways, good news and keep us informed on progress. a couple more runs like this and will be buying one. thanks, john

Happy for me too ;-)

Amp-wise I really don't know but from runtime and calculations I should be no more than half way to what they are rated for under full beans...of course that is the info we need to let me figure things out for logging.

Seems the watercooling works really well, can't see any issues at all. A few tiny things that could be improved upon on the esc's are just the final touches like using brass nipples instead of straight through soft aluminum where the silicon tubes hook up, bend one of those and you're kinda done. Also I wonder about the cap's and how they will hold up, how to replace etc...but what more can we expect from a $200 esc that holds up above 100mph, I think we're doing pretty good.

Stay tuned for ramped up tests tomorrow.

I have been a flier dealer and selling via my facebook group for over a year now. Weve had good luck with them. The 250 and 300 have been some of the better units from testing. I personally use the twin 300a in my hpr 135, a paor of 250 in my hpr c5009, and use them in my mean machine and my cheetah single. The 5009 has a pair of tp4070 2200kv and on 5s it cruises nice and cool at mid to upper 80s, best of 87.6 on gps on 5s and anc 1815 props. I will be happy to email anyone a price list and can offer good discounts on 3 or more esc, i also sell car escs

you say the 250 and the 300 units have been better than others. so the 400 amp unit hasn't been one of the better units? or you dont have any testing on the 400?

I only know what ive sold and used personally, i have not used a 400, sold 1 and havent heard any info back. The 180s have been workimg well for others. I had 1 warranty claim that flier promptly covered without issues that ended up being user error.

how do we access your listings and pricing on the flier boat esc's?

[urbs00007]

For the record, two more clean and issue free runs today on 10S, screaming fast and running cold.

Awesome news Steve. Your probably not pushing them to the limits of 400 amps at this point tho, but working well is definitely good news. How's the driving manners? Throttle response? I can't wait to get mine and put it through its paces, my shocker pulls a good bit of power and I might be able to prop up some with this esc. I'm at the century mark with a mild un-modded prop. So hopefully this will give me some headroom to go faster.

I was planning to push harder today but the water was not perfect, stayed with the reduced 6514's, turning out to be a really nice prop for this hull BTW. Of course later today when driving by the lake again it was like glass, go figure. Anyways, I will be back tomorrow and if water is good I'll be throwing on more prop, still though I agree, nowhere near 400 amps...but the headroom is sure nice!

I realize now I got a killer price on mine at $200 each, lowest I have seen over the last few days is about $275.

Sidenote: Checking out the Flier website I notice there is an 800amp esc...interesting, for what I don't know other than an HPR233 but very cool nonetheless!

If i get 3 or more pple wanting a flier esc i can offer a 10% discount off my list price. Idk what the rule would be but i can post my list here if pple would like.
