That thing is hauling!
So does anyone have any ideas from my crap video....
Sounds like "miss firing" more than cutting out. Did you unplug the red wire?
If you did all the suggested measures, may be it is the combination of relatively high kv with 6s and the electronics having hiccups?? The sound reminds me of my Lizard Xtreme, although I have it on 4s2p with only a Leopard 4o82/2000kv, that particular ESC (same as yours) was involved in a total submersion albeit no damage was found at the time. It will always cut out and I changed my radio and was the same thing.
Not suggesting your ESC has had any similar fate but rather that the electronics may be at fault. The only way to verify and narrow down the cause is to swap out the ESC with a known problem-free one.
May be your external BEC is at fault??? :noidea:
I'd try what tlandaur said. Maybe back it down to 5s and use internal bec. You may have hurt the external bec with the back feeding. Those be a have worked well for me but I'm sure you can get a bad one sooner or later.
Hello guys,
Apologies to post on an old thread, but I just need to ask. I am new to RC Boating, so wanting to know how do you actually use/wire/install an external BEC to your boat?
Jimmy, you really need to start a new thread if you want many answers. Resurrected old threads sometimes do not get much traffic, and your question has little to do with the topic title..
