Good info… but what I really wanted to know is, under what circumstances would you want to use each one? Surely they make them with these differences for a reason… and it’s not economic because they cost the exact same from the manufacturer in most cases. So, when use a low Kv motor, and when use a high Kv motor? Thought this video might explain that. (And yes, understand the premise of wanting to use variance in voltage, but is it really that simple? If voltage remains constant, max Kv? Or are there reasons to go lower in Kv at the same voltage?)

It would be great, if you extend this comparison to the whole setup, not just the motor. I think, the losses in ESC and wires are also not negligible, as ESC also needs cooling. Switching and guidinbg high currents (158 compared to 40) for sure make a difference somewhere else? What do you think will change in your efficiency calculation, if you look at the whole system, including ESC, connectors and cables?

Broadly speaking, you should use a motor with a propeller that gives us the rpm calculated in this way. Kv * V * 70% = rpm. So for the same power at higher Kv a smaller and vice versa propeller will be used. Using it with a propeller that with less rpm will be a disaster and will end up burning the motor. all 100% acelerated.

With more surface of a bigger motor, does that mean a large physical size motor with a low KV would run the "coolest"? What I'm gathering from your video too is that a lower KV running on a ton more volts actually demands much fewer amps than a larger kv motor running on much fewer volts. Pretty dramatic.

I'd like to be able to run 3 and 4s without losing too much speed on 3s if possible . .does that 4068 2650kv motor sound like a good fit? when people say a certain motor will pull too many amps or an amp hog what causes that? if a motor has a higher amp rating does that mean it pulls more amps ?

I'm trying to keep the heat down a bit..trying to find that balance between power and heat I suppose. i mainly just bash on and off road..no track racing or anything . ..any help or advice would be great man..I really appreciate it.

I enjoy watching your videos. You explain topics very well. My question is about a motor's power. If manufacturers across the board don't consistently publish their specs, then how to compare? Let's take the Tekin T8 1900kv, the Reds Racing V8 1900kv, and the HW Xerun 4268 G3 1900kv. All top-choice motors, IMO, but between those three, the Reds is the only motor with a published 1850W of power. We can't assume that all three motors are equal in power, so how does one motor seemingly have a different power curve, feel, or punch? Perhaps neither actually do, and it may all be bullshit specs. On a side note, something also worth mentioning that any brushless motor seems extremely weak, aka ZERO power, in a locked-rotor state. For example, if your car is pinned-in tight against a pipe, the motor will not rotate nor will the wheels even try to spin. Perhaps this is a fail-safe built into the ESC, but it's something that I have noticed.
@RCexplained Жыл бұрын
Hi Charles. You can analyze motor can size size, Io and Rm values to gain a further understanding of a motors potential. Otherwise, general experimental tests help determine the better performing motor. As for a locked rotor, my sesnored motors would brake shafts in half if the wheels were preventing the motor from turning. Perhaps you have a sensorless motor and are looking for power at 0 motor speed.

is the rpm determined by the voltage and current thru the motor or the speed at which the phases of the internal coils change? are they controlled externally or by the volatge appled? if they are a 3 phase motor then the speed is determined by the speed of the phase changes not the voltage applied. Too much voltage aand you let the smoke out unless the reverse emf keeps the current down.

Hi doccpu7, thanks for your comment. The maximum RPM a brushless motor can spin is determined by kv and voltage. RPM from 0 to that maximum calculated above is determined by PWM chopping in a 3 phase brushless motor. - where voltage is constant. Trying to over advance the timing of the phase changes will not speed the motor up. It will only place the motor and ESC out of sync.

So for rc boats running 4s-6s you want a lower kv to get the higher voltage with more heat dissipation for longer life outta that brushless inrunner motor and if the kv is higher then you can only safely run lower cell count batteries safely because they don't displace heat as well as the lower kv so like a 2900kv-3800kv 3674 brushless inrunner would best be suited for 3-4 cell batteries and on the upper 4 cell side you probably would not want to push higher c rating out of those motors because they can't displace the heat as well as say a 1900kv-2700kv 3674 brushless motor. Ok so if this is true and I am reading your numbers right the lower kv motor won't need as high of a amperage esc as the higher kv but if you use a higher amperage esc with a lower kv motor that doesn't need anywhere as much amps are you hurting that higher amp esc by running a lower amp usage motor????

and if u use esc that rated wayy more than the motor current it should be okay dont choose esc that below a max motor current

10s LiPo would get you somewhere around 3000 RPM.

1750W ? That high amperage sounds like bullshit. Can you show in a video with multimeter how it draws 1750W ?

Hey Kristiyan, thanks for the comment. A Multimeter would ignite in to a ball of fire if tested as suggested. Check out the video in this link where a similar setup is pumping out a lot more than 1750w of power. I go in to detail and break down 4 data logs. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHKTeWewp6eZjrc

@@RCexplained I am interested in seeing this in a video, not about data that I don't know where it comes from and I doubt it. Driving consistently 320 Amps through a copper wire, means that this wire is now almost comparable in diameter with a 540 motor. You can use a relatively cheap (under 100$) clamp meter to measure "320A" so no worries there. So, can you relate me to a video ?

Hi Kristiyan, Everything on this channel is based on theory, data, and tested results. If what you find here still leaves you in doubt, there's more than enough resources out there to make sense of it. I'm not sure how you expect someone to capture a live read out for you while the car is loaded accelerating to over 200km/h. I think instead of consistently you meant constant or continuously? There's no secrets, the duration of time was also in the video. Peak power comes from getting to top speed, not maintaining it. How many watts of power do you think it takes getting a 5Kg RC Car to over 200km/h in only a few seconds?

@@RCexplained Yes, I meant continuously. If this 320A is a peak of microseconds or something like that, maybe sure. But for 5 seconds you cannot drive 320A through any 540 motor. The amperage seems way too high for the width of the wires in the coils. I cannot find any useful resource on this. Only videos I find where they use meter on the power supply show 15-20W draw while accelerating a motor to max RPM with no load. It does not have to be in a car, you can introduce artificially load on the motor (literally even just by grabbing the shaft with cloth and using friction). Driving continuously 320A requires wires of size around 1cm by 1cm square - This is an insane wire size...

Hi Kristiyan, Take a look at this datasheet. Find the 1521 motor with a 1D wind. I have driven this motor personally at a constant 150A and it would easily sustain a 5 second burst over 300A. Look at the 0.5D wind as well! neumotors.com/neumotors-1500-series-bldc-motor-500-5000-watts-2/#1521 Here, this motor is smaller (smaller than 540 size) than the one mentioned in this video and provides you with exactly what you are looking for. Not my video but like I said, there's more than enough data out there. He does 2 tests, second one is the manufactures recommended voltage. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqK0hK2erbCNoLM Your 320A requiring a 1cmx1cm wire gauge is coming from a data sheet that is not for the correct application. You can't use chassis wiring or Power transmission charts!

@@RCexplained Hey, thank you for your reply. I have watched your video, because I'm looking for some answers. Maybe you can help me. For example: I got (but I don't have, I could check myself) SkyRC Toro X8 pro, 2150kv, 2400W, max 114A, max 21V and it gives 45150 max rpm. Torque is 0,508 Nm. What will happen if I use battery with 8,4V? After my calculations I get power 383W, 45,6A, 18060 rpm and 0,203 Nm. Am I right?
