Modified Tekin R1Pro

How far can the R1 pro controller be pushed? does it handle 5S?

I ran it for months on 5s in its stock form. It takes it easily. I know that Jim from Tekin even said it would probably take 6s. It has 30v components inside. But I personally havent tested it. With Arturs mod to it its now limited to 5s becasue he used a 27v component on it. But 5s is plenty for me. In stock form it ran my buggy with 5s and a Hacker 10xl geared for 38-40 mph or so without even breaking a sweat on the track.

What is the Tekin R1 Pro's amperage rating?

Far..., as long as software can handle it. Although I do not feel comfortable running close to FET's rated voltage.

What is the Tekin R1 Pro's amperage rating?

SPECS: Controls: Forward/Brake/Reverse
ON Resistance: 0.00005 Ohms (brushed fwd mode)
0.00015 Ohms (brushless mode)
0.00015 Ohms (brushed fwd/rev mode)
Input Voltage: 4 - 9 Cells, 2 - 3S Lipo
BEC 6.0 V / 3.0 A
Motor Limit: Brushed and Brushless, no limit
Throttle Profiles: 1-7
Max Current: Brushed Forward, 312amps / 624amps
Brushless per Phase: 104amps / 208amps

I will assume that stock ratings based on 26A per Fet @ 1sq-in pad with 1oz copper.

Modifications inside, extend current handling and power ratings, but do not overestimate pcb traces current capacity.

Thanks for the quick response.
