trampa Motor problem

Hello everyone!
I am Chinese and I like DIY sports!

My trampa configuration

  1. Board: trampa
  2. Gear box: moon 11/44T
  3. Motor: Flipsky 6374-170kv
  4. Battery: Model airplane lithium battery 12AH 12S 250A, LG polymer 36AH 12S 360A
  5. Wheels: 8 inches

It is very good to play. Except for insufficient torque, VESC Tool automatically adjusts to 65A. I manually change 85A motor, but it is still not happy enough.

I really like high torque. Is there a recommended motor?

what is the exact model of the battery cell? could be voltage sag

LG P2.7S

If you’re actually serious that it’s the P2 and that’s not a mistake

That would be your problem.

Oh! So how to solve it?

Buy or build a new battery.
With higher discharge rated cells.

:rofl: :joy:
Hahaha! Is it not enough to continuously discharge my two batteries?
It was too expensive to buy P42A 12S8P 45A*8P 360A at that time!

So you have a 12s8p of the LG P2 right now?

That’s what, 16A of battery current max?

That’s not even enough to run a hobbywing esc.

NONO is not 18650 21700
Is a high-rate soft packet

Even then, the max allowed discharge will be quite low. Watch out u don’t kill the cells

The cells are NMC, used in electric cars. They can deliver 200A no problem. I have p2.7 as well.

The motor is so tangled, I don’t know which one to buy!

Whatever the hell is going on here, that is a fucking beautifully constructed pack @Maliguoguo

The whole build is excellent

Ah okay I looked up the wrong cell then, I was wondering at the weird shape.

Yeah I was gonna say too, the pack looks really cool.

@Maliguoguo any chance your ESC is overheating quickly?

I guess it’s a spintend so probably not…

What’s your battery current limit set at?

Gearing is kinda low for 8in wheels imo. Also changing the throttle curve will help😏

NVM missed the 170kv part

This is correct, except I am under the impression that “low” gearing is for Low speed (high wheel teeth to drive pulley teeth ratio). I may be high tho…

EDIT: I’m definitely high

You could try 90 or 100 motor amps, and see if that gives enough torque without overheating.
If that’s still not enough, then your only options are to either:

  1. Change your gearing. With your current setup, your top speed is close to 60Km/h - gearing for a lower top speed (say 45 Km/h, which would be 9/47 gearing) will give you much more torque.
  2. Change your motors. Lower KV motors (less than 170) will give more torque per motor amp.

If 100+ motor amps doesn’t do it for you, I would definitely recommend changing your gearing.

change to 120a motor, see if u like it
