What voltage?
12s and 8s
How can you use two voltages?
Right now I have the small dv4 running on 8s6p with two hub motors, 25 batt amps each. It’s doing fine so far

The French that I’ve learned uses capitals and punctuation as well. Must be different in Canada.
I have a Flipshit and my DV4 has cleared customs. If I get it on Monday, I should be able to make a direct comparison in the coming weeks.
No, he’s not kidding. Your question was a bit hard to understand, mostly due to the missing punctuation. Also, 12s wasn’t recommended a couple of times earlier in the thread.

Have you upped the amps a bit to see what it can handle or did you plan it to be 25A?
I planned for it to be 25 or 30a because its 4wd, so I don’t want to wreck my batteries, max there would be ~120 battery amps from the four controllers. The hubs can’t even take much more than that anyway.
I picked up one of the go foc retros just recently (not arrived yet) and plan to run that at a higher amperage

Ah ok, that makes sense. I just wanted to try a DV4 for a small board. I guess I would need max 35-40ish amps per side for a 2WD. As far as I’ve seen that should be all right.

Yeah I think that would be okay, most people have gotten away with that, especially at lower than 12s

Everything up to 10s should be ok. I’ll get away with 40 amps I hope!

Mine is very happy at 40/-40/30/-12 and very unhappy above that.

That sounds perfect for my needs! What board do you have it on?

How so, does it overheat?

Rainy season, so I swapped it out for a potted ESC and it’s resting on the shelf. But I ran it in my dual 6374 build for quite a while and have moved it in and out of others.

Not really, just cutouts and one side likes to drop off into sleep now and again.

So 40A was right on the edge or do you have a bit of margin?

For me, 40 was the line in the sand. 10s and BLDC, BTW.
