lipo discharge rate I recently got a rtr deadbolt. I want to run the stock esc with cc bec and hh trailmaster 27t(already ordered). On 3s lipo. My question is what discharge rate battery should I get? Also changing to ec5 connectors. |
Re: lipo discharge rate Sorta depends on the mah/capacity of the pack. Discharge rate (amps) is a function of "C" rating & mah. Small packs (low mah) need a high "C" to give good performance. Larger packs (high mah) can get away with a lower "C" to gve good performance. If you're running ~2000mah+ packs for a brushed motor, you can likely get away with a 25-30C pack, higher C can add a bit more punch, but may not be really noticeable. Note: Some brushless motors tend to gobble up amps, thus usually need higher C or mah to perform well under load. I would NOT spend a ton of money on a "100C" pack of any size/mah. |
Re: lipo discharge rate Note sure on the C rating that would be the best, but I can tell you what I'm running. I have a 5000mAh (maybe 5200mAh) 50c 2S lipo from SPC Racing and love it. I easily run this thing for over an hour and have never run it all the way down yet. I actually plan on running it this weekend until the lipo cutoff shuts her down. Not sure if this answers your question, but I hope it helps. |
Re: lipo discharge rate That does help thanks. Actually feel a little silly for asking. I had some time today(I am a grape grower and it was single digits today) so I browsed the forum and learned a lot. Thanks again. |

I never dealt with LiPO until I got into crawlers, so I had questions back then as well. |
