How To Match Motor | Battery | ESC | Rc-Help Forum
The answer is yes. If you read the discription of the video, I put it at the bottom. Remember one thing, the motor is what regulates all of this. The motor PULLS the power from the battery, the battery does not push it out. So you can run as big of a battery as you want, as long as it''s able to at least handle the amps of the motor.
How do you select an ESC for a given brushless motor?
An ESC appears to just switch whatever battery voltage it is given onto the motor, so the current will just be proportional to the battery voltage (at a given pulse width, as determined by the ESC''s firmware). So, I just need to test an ESC with an adjustable LAB power supply (on which I have set a suitable current limit).
How To Connect ESC To Receiver
Now you''re good to go to the steps of connecting ESC to the receiver. So, the steps are-Step 1 of 2: Wiring ESC And Receiver. This is the first step toward connecting the ESC to the receiver. Make sure that your RC
Matching batteries with ESC''s
What the ESC, motor, and all other components DO care about is how fast they can draw current "from" the battery. If the battery is not big enough to handle the load of the system, the system will not perform properly, and the battery will burn up.
How to make sure the compatibility of motor, esc
As a DIY electric skateboard novice, have you encountered the problem of unsure whether the ESC, motor and battery matching well? The following will tell you how to select the appropriate ESC, motor, and battery by
amperage
$begingroup$ With a propeller as load the current will decrease as throttle is reduced, but the ratio of battery current to motor current will increase. So if eg. the ESC was rated for 10A but the motor drew 15A at full throttle, limiting maximum throttle to 67% might drop battery current to 8A but motor current would be 12A, still over the ESC''s rating.
80-Amp Pro Switch-Mode BEC Brushless ESC Instructions
every flight. Proper air cooling is required during flights so the ESC should be place in an area where air flows over the controller. We recommend you change your cutoff voltage to match the cell count of your battery. Connecting the ESC to the Motor The three wires from your motor connect to the three female gold bullet connectors on the ESC.
How to match lipo to brushless motor
Since power = watts = volts x amps, increasing the volts (i.e. cell-count) will allow you to get more power out of the motor while keeping its amps within spec. Personally, I always keep the cell-count within the specified range for my motor; but amps is what will really kill a motor, ESC, or battery, so once you''ve settled on what cell-count you''re going to use,
Questions about ESCs and battery compatibility : r/rccars
You don''t need a special brand of battery, just matching connections. Changing connectors is a relatively easy soldering job. If you have a local hobby store, they may even be willing to change connectors for you. What you need to be sure of, is if the ESC can handle the amps going to the motor, from the battery.
How to match my brushless motor with an ESC?
Thank you for the responses. I feel pretty stupid for not seeing the recommended ESC. Now I find myself with another question. I see that ESCs are almost always powered by a battery. Could I power the ESC with a variable DC power source instead?

Lipo Battery For Brushless Motor
The best LiPo battery for your brushless motor setup will be the one that supplies the power needed yet remaining at optimum weight and size. 3. How Do You Match Brushless Motor And LiPo Battery? Your ESC should match the battery voltage, for example, a 3-cell battery with 11.1V can be paired with a 12V ESC.
Confused about current draw in battery-esc-motor chain
That''s really an attempt to tell you how much current a battery can supply (if the prop and motor and gearbox combination demands it) without the voltage falling off markedly. Take most battery vendors'' claims on this with a large grain of salt. Now an ESC is nothing but a high speed switch (or three, in the case of a brushless one).

When using individual ESCs, they typically need to be connected to a single power distribution board (PDB) or a flight controller with an integrated PDB for easy power supply.
Please help me understand how to find a LiPo battery compatible with an ESC
It can handle a lot more power than the old motor, but the battery can''t supply it. To really upgrade a car, you need to change both the motor and battery (and esc, and charger) as lipos have higher power outputs. Of course, you may then have too much power for the transmission.

Matching Battery-ESC-Brushless Motor Eflite
A bigger ESC is an advantage until size/weight becomes a problem. For the EDGE 540 I''d use the 450BL and the 25A ESC. Unless it is 20C you''d be pushing a 1320 pack very hard if your motor is going to be drawing ~18A... you need a pack which can deliver what the motor requires easily - say 15C 3s 2100.

For example, a 12V system with a 100Ah battery holds 1,200 Wh. By assessing your power needs and choosing the right battery, you''re well on your way to a successful solar panel installation. Step-By
How to power up esc without a battery?
Same as for a battery. Oh, and be careful with the ESC outputs/motor leads, keep them separated/isolated, or connected to a motor. I''ve done it more than a few times, with ESCs from various eras. An adjustable voltage bench supply is quite handy at times. Be careful if trying to run the motor, don''t exceed the current limits of the power supply.
Power supply to control brushless motor?
Also, I would like to know why ESC and brushless motors are rated at such high amperage. How can that little brushless motor and ESC I''m using be rated at 8A and 12A respectively without larger voltages to match?

6 FAQs about [How to match the battery with the ESC power supply]
How to choose an ESC battery?
Chose a battery with higher current rating than the peak current draw of the motor. The ESC can be selected based on the voltage and the peak current rating of the motor. A simple rule is to choose an ESC with atleast 5A more capacity than the peak rating of the motor, since you may be powering servos, receiver and other accessories from the ESC.
How to choose an ESC?
The ESC can be selected based on the voltage and the peak current rating of the motor. A simple rule is to choose an ESC with atleast 5A more capacity than the peak rating of the motor, since you may be powering servos, receiver and other accessories from the ESC. Remember to always round up.
How many volts can an ESC handle?
With good cooling Your motor should be able to handle ~15A continuous or 30A peak, which on 11.1V is achieved with a 5-6 inch propeller (test data here). Since your ESC is rated at 30A it should be safe so long as you don't overload the motor. The Motor specs should give you most of the information you need.
How many amps should a ESC draw?
You need an ESC that has an amperage rating higher than what the motor will draw. Batteries don't fry escs - motors pulling too many amps are what kills them. You need to find out how many amps your motor is going to draw. GWS has charts that will show you that. It looks like three amps is about max draw for that type of motor.
What is the difference between battery voltage and ESC voltage?
1.Battery voltages should not be higher than the maximum voltage that ESC can suffer. 2.Continuously output of battery's current need to be bigger than the ESC's. Working voltage of the motor is decided by the ESC, whilst the voltage of ESC is decided by the output of batteries.
What is the difference between ESC and ESC ERPM?
1.ESC and motor: The motor ERPM must be smaller than ESC ERPM. 2.Battery and motor: The battery voltage must be less than or equal to the motor voltage. Could you just provide a grid that shows motors and compatible ESC combos that you sell. This would be much easier for customers to just select what you recommend as compatible together.
