another new hobbyking esc (150A)

[florianz]

hi folks,

as I have some problems with my xcelorin, I have tested the HK 150a today. It's my backup esc, but I will run it permanently, the xcelorin gives me headaches.

It says tht its only up to 4s, but I have read about 6s use. So I thought, well, let's have a try on 5s.



the bottom of the power board; the heatsink didn't get off. I am curious about the FET's.

the brain in the "ground floor":


the Caps are 25v, so I will be save with 5s I think. Finally a ESC with sufficient power caps, 3x 1000uf.



Today I had a first short test run. Good throttle, little - no cogging. Default is forward w/reverse, after breaking it gets to reverse instandly. so I will remove reverse.

Power output is great, I think better then the losi. It's bloody big, but fits into my truggy. Programming with the box is easy.

As I am not sure about the BEC, I run it with the hextronic ubec (pretty good thing).

cool stuff, I will report some more next weekend :-)
