Which esc are you specifically asking about and which Tekin motor


1. MBX-6 T8 1900KV, RX8 ON 4S
2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
3. MBX-5 ONROAD CONVERSION 1515, MMM ON 5S
4. MRX-3 ON ROAD CONVERSION 1512, MMM ON 6S
5. TEN T 2650 T8, MMP ON 3S

I have and e-revo with a hv pro 6.5 and wanted to know if a tekin tt2361 4038 2000kv sensored motor would work since the 6.5 is sensored and the tekin is also.

The Novak HV pro was designed to work only with sensored motors that include the motor temp sensor--we call it the "blue wire software". Unless the Tekin motors include this resistor, the HV pro will not be compatible, AFAIK.

I will check with Bob Monday about this. When this esc was released, there were no other sensored HV motors available.

Quote:
MOTOR COMPATIBILITY
The HV Pro ESC and motor contain Thermal Overload Protection circuitry to protect the system from overheating and damage. In fact, the ESC will only operate with the HV-Series or other brushless motors that have built-in thermal protection that follow ROAR guidelines. This sophisticated feature ensures a fun day at the track without the worry of overheating.

all novak ESCs will work with any sensored motor... the temp cutoff will only work on novak motors though...


add some caps and a fan on the esc and it should be fine...

It might work but the timing may not be correct. The novak hv motors like high timing which is provided by the HV-pro, but the tekin motors like lower timing. Not that it wont work, but its probably not recommended.

So a novak esc will run a 4 pole motor? Seeing as all of the novak are 2 pole motors, that would be the most pertinent question...

hi,
would the hv pro also work with sensorless motors? I wonder if I could use a hv pro on 5s (disabeling lipo-cutoff, using ubec) with a losi 4 pole xcelorin 1700kv.

many thanks
florian

no, the esc is sensored only...

Sorry, no.

The Havoc ESC specifically will not run a motor without a working temp sensor (unless you have kluged a resistor setup on the sensor cable). I know this from experience because I have a SS5800 motor with a failed temp sensor and the Havoc gives the LED error code for "no temp sensor" with this motor. It will not run it.

The Havoc 2S and 3S and the HV Pro all have the "blue wire software". The Goat 2S and 3S Crawler escs have a different sensing program to detect whether or not a Crawler motor is being used. If not, the esc reverts to standard configuration, not crawling.
