cmon guys give me a hand esc trouble

[Jcarlton]

i have a villain ex with 19 turn komodo motors , and im running 2 4200 7 cell batts ,
i fried a capacator in my esc replaced it ran fine for 10 min and quit again . shouldnt that novak esc handle this ? or do i need to upgrade to the superduty? any duel motor esc suggestions would be great!!!!:)

[saleens7]

if its dying on you, i would definately upgrade to an esc that can handle the amount of cells and the # of turns of the motors..

[Steven Vaccaro]

I would think it would handle them. It handles the trinity monster motors. You may want to change the gearing and retest.

[Jcarlton]

but are you running 6 or 7 cell packs?

[RMZDADDY]

I wouldn't personally trust the EVX esc past 12 cells with the 19t motors in a marine application, I have two villains that I installed the super duty xr in. One with trinity monster big block 12t and the other with big block 14t motors. The super duty handled the low turn motors without any problems, even when the driveline on one side bound up and overheated the motor to the point that it burned the com beyond repair and melted the solder off the motor connections!

[Jcarlton]

so your talking about the novak super duty do you have any pics?

[RMZDADDY]

Yes it is the novak, I could take some pics and send them to you or post them on this thread.

[Jcarlton]

that would really help thanx alot!!!

[RMZDADDY]

Here's a pic, it has the same footprint as the EVX, pretty easy to install.

man thanx alot !!!!!!!!!!! try that other esc and make me an offer . so im getting in some octurra 447,447r props and shafts , and prop balancer . are the props hard to
balance & sharpen? whats in your boat?
also i just bought a m tronics brushless motor esc comb. will that work good in a graupner b24 ? ive got a shockwave 26 coming but is that going to be a waste of time .

[Jcarlton]

also was it hard to wire in?

[Jcarlton]

acually some more pics of your whole boat would be great !!!
thanx for educating me just getting in it

[Jcarlton]

are you also cooling the shafts too ? love to see your setup!!!!!!!!!!

[Jcarlton]

love to see how you cool the shafts thats nice .
what would be a good boat to install the brushless on?

[RMZDADDY]

I'll get some more pics posted tonight or tomorrow, I'm now running trinity monster maxx wild motors with 12 tooth pinions, graupner u-joints, offshore's carbon fiber upgrade props and x447 octura props. I've also added trim tab/turn fin combos that help alot with turning and straight line stability. The props aren't hard to finish, but it does take patience. I don't have any experience with the mtronics or the other two hulls you mentioned, hopefully some of the other members can help you there!
