HPI Flux Warp 5700kv with 6S lipo

XI_Cryo_IX · 15 Apr 2011 at 16:33

okay i have a esc which is designed for 6s lipo but im wondering if the 25.4volts will be too much for the Flux warp 5700kv motor.

Yes definitely.....

Hell yeah, go for it :cool:

I don't know Solid, some people have had reliability issues running this setup.

Solid were u being sarcastic lol ? i cant tell

Skeeter · 15 Apr 2011 at 16:38

Depends on how much ampage your esc can take, and what the motor will draw. However, fundamentally, you will burn out that motor if you run it full (if the esc doesn't blow before hand).

oh btw its a mamba max pro esc if that helps

XI_Cryo_IX · 15 Apr 2011 at 16:39

Also this is all going into a 1/16th scale car XD so the ampage wont need to be as high since its very lightweight

It'll be fine mate, no need to worry at all.

I was not, how dare you question my integrity, I only ever use a flux capacitor on my DeLorean anyway, which is obviously way more powerful than what you are talking about!

XI_Cryo_IX · 15 Apr 2011 at 16:42

haha im sorry i offended u solid XD
btw im wondering, i can get about 65mph out of it with a 3S so with 6S do u think i will be able to cross the 100mph mark ?

Jez · 15 Apr 2011 at 16:43

Easy, maybe 120 tbh?

PMKeates · 15 Apr 2011 at 16:46

Jez is being stupid. You will only achieve 120 with a 6S if you use a nine-phase adaptive brush motor, which of course the HPI cannot support.

I thought I'd clicked on the Modelsport forum by mistake for a moment then

XI_Cryo_IX · 15 Apr 2011 at 17:20

if i run it with 3S on the road its stays nice and cool, if i run it on grass it gets way too hot, so im guessing with 6S it wud be a death wish to run it offroad unless i geared it really high?

I actually thought this was a joke post and you had posted all kinds of mumbo jumbo to confuse us.

XI_Cryo_IX · 15 Apr 2011 at 17:27

haha why is it really just gonna fail ?
