Hi guy thanks in advance for your help I appreciate it.
so after 3 weeks of rain and no driving I charged up my board to go on a ride. It showed full battery for a sec then went instantly to half and once Ive hit the gas a little the remote indicated low battery and after 3 sec it turned off.
So I disconnected the battery and charged it till the green light +30min and tried again.
This time it stayed at full battery until I accelerated.
I’m pretty sure it’s the battery at that point but the voltage coming out of the battery looks totally fine. And one of the hub motors got a lot of resistance probably due to longer pause.
Could it be that the motor is causing to much power draw so the ESC or bms shuts of?
You can see it in the video how much difference between the 2 wheels is, wd40 didn’t help.
Video was taken while charger is connected
Even while on charge the power cuts out on the higher settings.
Could the charger even be broken? It switches from red green light the whole time now
Ist a Prebuild Apsuboard v5
2x 350w motor I think
14s2p battery weird size I know they say it’s to combat voltage sag and make up for small motors
ESC generic ling yi esc
Got 120mm cloudwheels since 300km that couldve put more strain on the batteries
If there’s any kind of plug like bullets or an XT90 in there between the battery and ESC you can also check for charred contact surfaces. Had a racing drone get similar symptoms to this by smoking an XT60, dies once you try to run it up.
I had a thought today.
Since one of the wheels is not freelyspinning properly, possibly due to moisture/water.
Could it be that the motor is shorting and that’s causing the problems?
I don’t need to know if that’s my problem just if it’s possible that this causes the the battery problems,since the voltage coming out of the battery is 58,8v(14s)
