Default AE-2 on 3s lipos

I hear that people are doing it and just wounderimg what the results are. I would run bec to try and help out but has anyone done it with good luck? Anyone blown esc? Anything else thats problem? Would like alittle more wheel spin and think of swapping my motor out for hh 35t or puller and would like to get most out of it.

I heard that some people were running 3s on the Axial ESC. I tried it and it wrked for the first pack. Second try, it fried the ESC.

Picked up a Holmes Hobbies BR-XL as a replacement. Running 3s, no BEC and it kicks azz!! I love the BR-XL.

Good luck with yours, who knows you might be a lucky one and it works out for you.

i owne nothing but 3s lipo BATT. stock axial esc still fine this is 3 months already, just got a novak rooster 2s also on 3s running fine so far.

you should be fine unless you are using some $10 esc,

some ppl say dont let the voltage drop to low!

personaly (dont suggest you do this) to me it has droped to the point where it starts going extremelly slow, im not saying i am proud of this but is still alive...

just my 2 cents

if you have a esc to spare then i dont see why not? try it and if breaks it probably needed changing anyway

good luck
