neu motor amp draw per size? -
12.20.2009, 10:24 PM
I was wondering if anyone could help me here,was wondering what the amp draw differance would be in a touring car same kv and gearing both on 3s lipo. motor a = 1506 or motor b = 1509. both would be geared tall. around 6700kv. would the larger 1509 be better suited for the tc geared high. (def. more tourque)

Assuming your esc and lipos were upto task, then the larger motor woudl always better at pulling taller gearing for a higher top speed. Calculating current draw would be rather difficult without something like Castle's secret test rig and data logging equipment- the maximum power ratings are listed on the Neu website though, for each motor...
Ok thanks Neil. I'll be using a mmm esc. the lipo will prob. be my turnigy 3s 3600 30c. It suprises me how well it does. here it is in the E-revo with mmm/2200 combo. just playing around with eagletree, did well
BPP truggy over close to 20 pounds maybe more, Schulze 40.160, Neu 1521/1Y (around 1500Kv), 10S1P (2 5S Thunder Power Extreme packs, the log version), 3.3 buggy diffs, 25T/51T center gearing and foam tires. Pulled over 169A. The max. power was 4760W (Over 6HP).
