scorpion 4525-520kv on 700 heli, helidiect said use a 200a esc. Is that the real deal or are they fishing for more money.
Oh well what it is, is what it is. guess I'll look for a weekend job.I'm afraid so Platinum PRO V4 Series HV (6S- 14V)
Wow Geena, thar's so good to here. I mean that really made my day I could buy a heli kit for what a 200a cost. thank you so much.It all depends on how you fly. Most can get away with 120-130A speed control. Especially if all you`re doing is sport flying. I have rarely seen amp draws from my own speed control over 100A spikes. Most of the time I`m right around 90 or so amps. I`m running a 170A speed control on my Whiplash 730E, with 730mm main blades. If you`re going to be flying like Kyle Stacey, I would say yeah, you should go with a 200A speed control. But for the average pilot, 120-130 is enough.
We are talking 12s right?Wow Geena, thar's so good to here. I mean that really made my day I could buy a heli kit for what a 200a cost. thank you so much.
Yes, I`m talking about 12s. I have run 120A and 130A on 700s many times. The speed control I have on my Whiplash 730 is 170A, and it`s just fine. You don`tr need 200A unless you fly like Tareq and all those guys. I`m sure you`ll be perfectly fine with 120A or 130A.We are talking 12s right?
Ok just checking and thanks again.Yes, I`m talking about 12s. I have run 120A and 130A on 700s many times. The speed control I have on my Whiplash 730 is 170A, and it`s just fine. You don`tr need 200A unless you fly like Tareq and all those guys. I`m sure you`ll be perfectly fine with 120A or 130A.
The Hobbywing 130A HV will give 130A continuous and 10 second spikes to 160. You`ll never over draw it with sport flying.
