Where's d spark?
 

I have two 6s 5000 zippy used to give out a spark when I plug my esc connectors. But since I hv ran them 20mins straight last week they no longer spark?

Is that a good thing or not?

Cells are ok, I have LVC n they cut at 3.2v

It would be MUCH easier if you typed out "have" instead of saying "hv" cause most people might think "hv" is "High Voltage."

Just a thought.

You might just be getting lucky when plugging them in.

Sorry for d spelling, what u meant by getting lucky when plugging them in?

The spark is from charging the caps on the esc. I don't think the battery could prevent the spark unless it's REALLY poor..... but it's not something I have ever thought about before.

btw, have you tried running the 4s setup again???

Do u mean no spark is bad? I m trying 4s on 2000kv on thur n 6s on 2000kv

How do the connectors look? Over time, the sparking will eat away at the connector and blacken where the spark connects. Could be you just have enough "char" on the connectors right when you plug them in that the resistance allows a relatively slow charge of the caps.

Your caps could be bad too, but you'd probably be able to tell by unstable operation, excessive heat, caps physically puffed, etc.

my esc is new, connectors is old mayb need cleaning. I hate d spark wo spark izzit ok

I wouldn't worry about it, if everything seems to be running fine otherwise.

For the love of God, learn to use spell check!!!! :rules:

I know how to spell just lazy LOL

Last time I checked, "izzit" requires you to hit the same number of keys as "is it". :lol:

I'm with GD- If it's running fine, don't worry about it.

LOL yeah u r right just a bad habit

I think your caps are dead, thats why there is no spark, you should carefully open the case and check caps condition if possible measure them also.
But it could be also just like BrianG said, char on connectors.

is having char on the connectors bad. i have the same problem as supertek, no more spark and i see char on my connectors. but everything is running fine...other than the 3 times where the mmm would just flash all lights but no response with the throttle and steering.

Caps on my esc is dead then how can it still work? N y having char on d connectors is bad? I hate d spark ESP on 6s damn
