Noob question thread! 2020_Summer

I would put fishpaper between them and on the sides, and foam on the bottom and top, front and back

You can also use RTV silicone instead of foam

On the lipos or can I add foam on other electronics also? I also said foam cuz I got a lot so might as well use it

Which loctite goes where? Im gonna venture a guess and say, blue on axel and kingpin nuts, red on enclosure bolts and the bolts on my tire hubs.

Depends on how often you’ll be opening or disassembling stuff. Red is permanent and blue is not. What do you mean by enclosure bolts? Do you have threaded inserts?

Reds semi permanent, i can force it off by hand but its easier with a heat gun. Greens the tough stuff. Think imma go blue all around and if anything doesnt hold up ill switch to red

I finally decided to just fuckin send it full speed up a hill and I got the fault! I never thought I would be excited to see a problem!
Any idea what this is from?

What esc are you running? V4 or v6?

This is just my best guess on a solution, but try bringing the motor amps down to around 60a and see what that does.

Im running this guy. Dual VESC6 200A most affordable premium motor controller | Flipsky.net – FLIPSKY

One thing that my fsesc didn’t come with is the little capacitor looking thing connected to the + and - wires.

Yeah I have one but Its on a 10s that doesnt see really any speed.

I’d say drop the motor amps and see what you get.

Transient voltage suppression diode, shouldnt be the cause for over current faults.

I tried this in the past and it still happened. Would it help to raise the absolute max current from 150 to 250 per side?

Try 175a and see. Really not sure how well the fesc could handle upwards 200a. I know its quoted being 200a capable but we all know flipsky embellishes from time to time.

Ok. I know it is 200 continuous, but they say “Instantaneous current 400A per single” is that what they claim to be maximum instantaneous?

From the wording, yes I’d assume that. But again, its flipsky so im not positive on that.

flipsky’s claims are massively… overstated. Try pulling 400a for any amount of time and the esc is 100% toast. Your absolute maximum current is high enough if your motors only pull 78 amps and its set to 150 max.
