@ChrisF 私が持っているほとんどのLiPoパックは、付属のプラグが用途に合わない種類であったり、使用したい用途に適さないXTサイズのプラグが付いていたりしました。

LiPoパックは、特定のボートに合うサイズで購入し、同梱のプラグの種類が選択に影響することはなかったので、しばしば交換が必要になりました。

私はすべての大型艇とLiPoパックについてはXT90に統一し、中型の動力艇についてはすべてXT60に統一して、すべてに5.5mmの「gold」プラグとソケットを付けて、必要ならばあるいはテストのためにモーターやESCを簡単に交換できるようにしています。

エアロキットのファストパトロールランチなどの小型モデルは、元ラジコンカーのレーシングキットを使いますが、XT60プラグを使い続けると思います(ただし5.5mmのプラグとソケットは使いません!)。

私のいくつかの1/12スケールのMardaveミニレーシングパックは、4.8 voltのNiMhバッテリーパック(または単セルの3.7voltのハードケース入りLiPoパック)を持っていて、まずはパトロールランチで試してみるかもしれません。パトロールランチにはMFAの385のブラシドモーターが搭載されているからです(そのボートに適したサイズと見なされて取り付けられたのは多年前のことです!)……そして将来ある種の540サイズのモーターに改装された場合でも、それらは依然としてボートで動作するでしょう。

細い配線や小さなプラグは大きなものより抵抗が増えることがあり、最良の電力供給を得るために、私はプラグのサイズを適切なゲージの配線と合わせることを好みます……そして異なるモデルボートで異なるモーターやESC、異なるサイズのバッテリーを試して何が最もよいかを見るのが楽しいので、自分の都合にも合います。

私はまた、異なる物理サイズのバッテリーを実験できるように、XT90からXT60へのアダプタやXT60からXT90へのアダプタをいくつか作りました。これは特に 新しい船体のテストとバランス取りの際に役立ちます。

品質の良いESCを購入する際、付属の配線はそのESCを使うボートで最適な配線サイズを判断する良い目安になることがよくあります。

私のラジコンカー用レーシングモーターのほとんどは540サイズ(ブラシ付きとブラシレス)で、通常2Cのハードケース入りLiPoパックで動かしており、これらは直接LiPoパックに差し込めるゴールドプラグを備えていますが、汎用性を保ち、どの組み合わせが特定の模型で最もよいかを見られるように、これらにXT60プラグとソケット付きのフライリードを取り付けるかもしれません。

人それぞれ考え方はありますが、多くのラジコン動力ボートの運転者が今ではXT90かXT60のプラグを使用しているのを私はよく見かけます。二つのサイズの使い分けは通常ボートのサイズに見合ったものになっています。

こんにちは Bob、私は元々 XT90 コネクタを Swordsman に取り付けるつもりでした。というのも 4S を使っていて、使おうとしていた ESC の関係もあったからですが、バッテリーに取り付けられていた XT60 があってその判断を考え直させられました。ESC からのバッテリーケーブル(コネクタ未装着の Seaking)はかなり太めの 12 AWG だったので、 XT90 を使おうかとも考えており、 XT60 に合うかどうか疑問に思っていました。しかしバッテリー仕様書に同じサイズと示されていたにもかかわらず、実際にはさらに太い 10 AWG ケーブルと XT60 が付いてきました。新しい ESC に XT60 が取り付けられていたことが決め手でした。少しググったことでも安心できました。

過剰性能でも問題ありません。申し上げた通り、私の取り付けはすべて過剰設計気味ですが、特に理由がない限り良好な XT60 コネクタを取り外すのはためらいます。ただし、あるモデルではためらわずに Tamiya コネクタを交換したことがあります。とはいえ、Tamiya のままの RTR プラスチックモデルが二つほどあってそれらは問題なく動いていますが、私はそれらに執着しておらず、今ではあまり使いません。

比較のために言えば、大きなモーターを持つ洗濯機を想像してください。それが比較的細いケーブルでプラグを通じて給電され、ケーブルはしばしば最悪の方法で固定されている──ねじで押しつぶされた撚り線、そしてそれが 240volts(英国)です!それから強力な掃除機もあります!時々私たちは考えすぎていると思います!

こんにちは Chris、

新しく買ったESCはたいてい配線し直して接続しなければならず、私はいつもモーターに三本の出力線をつなぐために5.5mmの「ゴールド」プラグとソケットを使います。

これらのコネクタはモーターへ電力を十分に流すことができ、最初に接続したときにモーターが逆回転する場合は外側の二本の線だけを簡単に抜いて逆にできます。

LiPoをESCに接続するには、私はいつもXT90のプラグとソケットを使います。

上に書いたことはやや頑丈すぎるとか「やりすぎ」に見えるかもしれませんが、コネクタの故障やその種の不具合で問題が起きたことは一度もありません。

私が最初に買ったRTRの高速電動ボート(Alpha 1000)もこれらと同じコネクタを使っており、それ以来ずっとこの構成を完全に成功させて再現しています。

ボブ。

最初にこの質問をした理由は、私の電気計算に関する知識が基本的なものしかなく、面白いことに別のESCを購入したら疑問が解決したからです!仕様は次のとおりです:

HobbyWing Quicrun 120amp 空冷/ファン
主な特徴
さまざまな気候や過酷な環境に対応する優れた防水・防塵性能。
高効率走行、低動作温度、安定性と信頼性の向上のためのスマートフリーウィーリング技術。
内蔵スイッチング方式BEC: 6V/7.4V調整可能、5A連続、10Aピークで強力な高電圧サーボをサポート。
複数の保護機能:低電圧、ESC過熱、スロットル信号喪失、電流、コンデンサ過熱保護。
受信機リードを抜かずにプログラムカードに便利に接続できる独立プログラミングポート。
仕様
連続/ピーク電流: 120A/760A
モータタイプ:センサーレス/センサー付きブラシレスモーター(センサーレスモードのみ)
LiPoセル数: 2–4S LiPo
3S LiPoでのモーター制限:KV < 4000, 3660サイズモーター
4S LiPoでのモーター制限:KV < 2600, 4268サイズモーター
BEC出力: 6V/7.4V調整可能、5A連続(スイッチング方式)、10Aピーク
冷却ファン:内蔵BECで駆動
寸法/重量: 52.8(L) x 39.8(W) x 38.2(H) mm / 119 g(配線・コネクタ含む)
プログラミングポート:独立ポート

このESCは XT60 が取り付け済みで届き、これは私が使おうとしていたHobbyWing Seaking 120amp 水冷ESCとは驚くほど違いました。 私が既に使っているHobbyWing Quicrun 60amp 空冷ESCはコネクタが取り付け済みで来ず、自分ではんだ付けしなければならなかったのですが、今回の 30amp はタミヤコネクタが付属していたのでそれを XT60 に交換しました。興味深いのは上の仕様に容量が 120amps 連続と記されていることで、これは XT90 領域であり、ピークが 760amps と記されている点で、これは非常に短時間なら問題ないのかもしれませんが、XT90s の容量をはるかに超えています。

しかし私の無知を考えると、バッテリーとESCの両方に XT60 が取り付けられていたという事実は大きな朗報で、どちらの場合も XT60 が問題ないと判断されたということです。加えて、私はモーターに必要なアンペアの二倍まで扱えるESCを使用しており、使用しているバッテリーはモーターが取る 7S と比較して 4S にすぎません。全体として、引かれる電流は XT60 コネクタの容量よりずっと少ないと確信しています。最大アンペアを測るあの手の装置も見てみようと思います。

もう一つの理由で XT60 が問題ないと分かって嬉しいのは、XT90 は狭い場所ではぐらつかせても外しにくく、特に逃げた瞬間に損傷する危険があるからです!

このESCの欠点はモーターケーブルが付属しておらず、メスコネクタだけという点で、他のすべてのESCとは異なります。モーター側のケーブルはかなり短く、ESCの位置決め/取り付けを困難にし、バッテリーケーブルを延長したり延長ケーブルを使いたくありません。したがってはんだ付けをしてモーター用の延長ケーブルを作らなければなりません。

I have a couple of the Surpass 120AMP air cooled ESC that I am not using. One is still in the box and the other has been run in my Kopy Kommander.

The one that I ran in my Kopy Kommander always run OK and never got hot - just nicely warm which I think is good and just about "right".

I could even bung this in my Sprite Plus as it is wired up with XT90 and is ready to go, but I do want to try the SHARK ESC sometime as they look very good and are available at a very competetive price from Ali Express.

The prices for the SHARK ESC vary from day to day, but when I checked this morning (I was actually looking for a small outboard motor to fit the Sea Urchin), the 100AMP ESC was only around £30 with free delivery. Not a bad price!

I have some short LiPo's that are 3C as they were just the right size to fit across the width of my Remora and work very well, but if I could have bought the same size in 2C I am sure that the performance would be very similar, but I would probably get longer run times.

New HobbyWing Quicrun 120amp air-cooled ESC ordered so will be able to do the installation in a few days time. Actually, I had a look at the Seaking water-cooled one and it does have pretty good fins so I reckon it would have been alright. But anyway I needed another ESC and will also need another Seaking for my outboard project. Hate to think how much I've spent over the years! 🤔 😀

@zooma Thanks for all that Bob. It could be that it will perform fine on 3S and I have a new battery to try that I bought for the Huntsman 31. Reason for the 4S is that I worked on the rule of thumb that you need around 10k. rpm on these type of models and allowing 80% loss when running loaded in the water means you need around 12k. As the motor is a quite low kV at 800 rather than our more usual 1200 to 1500kV necessitated the 4S, well in theory anyway.

I say this because this is the basis for my other smaller boats which I have run. I get them up onto the plane and then use a bit more throttle to achieve a nice speed, but not manic (as I've said our lake isn't that big and we have these "magnetic" buoys!) but it's nowhere near full throttle. I have thought about getting a device for measuring the rpm to see what the revs actually are and to be a bit more scientific. I suspect they are running well below 10k. rpm.

It's interesting what you say about using 2S. When I bought my first Huntress off DaveM I ran it on 2S but whilst it planed it needed a bit more speed and so changed to 3S which I also use on my other Fairey sports cruisers. They do have smaller, 3 bladed props than you use on your models though.

As I said an easy fix for the Swordsman is to drop down to 36mm diameter but I want to stick with the 42mm and also want to see how it does. Given that this has plenty of power, the prop is a 40mm 3 bladed brass/bronze and the ESC I'm going to get is twice the amps required and has fins/fan I'm confident that it will be fine. Especially as I run my others without the fans attached and they barely get warm.

Hi Chris. I am not qualified to advise on any of the technical aspects of electronics, but I do have some experience of running fairly fast and fairly large Classic Model Power Boats with out-runner and in-runner brushless motors most weeks of the year, and hope my observations may be of some interest?

Most of my larger Classic Model Power Boats run with a 50S propeller as this seems to suite them better than other sizes that I have tested, but some have run with a 45X and 50X props reasonably well too.

I have found the Sea King ESC to be totally reliable and they seem to run my boats more smoothly and with more power than any of the alternative ESC that I have used that have the same (or similar) power ratings.

The 120amp and 150amp Sea King ESC that I have used have delivered all the performance that I could ever need, and none of them has ever run HOT. All my Sea King ( and re-badged Turnigy) ESC are water cooled.

My experience with fan cooled 120AMP ESC has not been as good, but they have run well enough without over-heating, but they do not seem to be able to deliver the power as relentlessly.

Water cooling keeps everything running slightly warm and when coupled with inexpensive water-cooled alloy motor mounts the motors run as cool as the ESC. Even the "self-cooling" out-runners benefit from running in an alloy water-cooled motor mount as it helps to keep the main bearing cool.

Strangely I have never found any great benefit from running my in-runner motors with their optional water jackets connected. When I disconnect the water cooling pipes, the large alloy water jacket seems to dissipate the motors heat just as effectively !

I am going to try one of the 100amp water-cooled SHARK ESC in my Sprite plus as I see them working well in some of the local power boats, and I when I have driven them they "feel" like my Sea Kings, so I am keen to try one in my own models.

I also run the 90AMP Sea King (or re-badged Turnigy) ESC in my smaller Remora and that performs superbly with a 40S or 45S propeller.

In real terms I have not found any great advantage on our small lake by running 3S or 4S LiPo batteries instead of 2S.

To benefit from the extra volts, the propeller usually needs to be reduced in size to allow the motor to rev more freely. The increase in speed (in the same hull) is minimal compared to running 2C LiPo packs, but the duration is reduced so I get shorter run times.

For "out and out" racing where speed is the most important factor, then higher voltage's will help, but I no longer compete or race, so I find the higher voltage packs to be of no benefit - .....and they cost more!

@AlessandroSPQR I wish it was me taking the notes!

To be honest I've dug myself into a bit of a hole with this one! The Swordsman was I think the second model I started to build some years ago and whilst I'd learned quite a lot by then, not enough or more accurately flawed thinking to some extent.

I say this because I chose not to water-cool (this wasn't the flawed part) and to be on the safe side over-engineer the components which you can do without too much of a cost penalty with a model which you would want to avoid with full-size.

This has worked well with my smaller models upto 31 inches in length where I have chosen a maximum brushless motor diameter of 36mm. The Swordsman is only 2 inches longer but has a bigger beam and is considerably heavier and so I decided to go with a 42mm diameter for more torque. The problem with this is that as you go bigger the choice of kV becomes less and the kV lower with the result that the motor only has 800kV and hence why I've had to go with 4S to get good performance.

My flawed thinking is because I underestimated the power of brushed motors which was reinforced later by getting to know Bob/Zooma and Harry/Canabus who run longer models on no more than 36mm diameter. Bob does water-cool but Harry doesn't. Though Harry does run above 3S on occasions.

But by then I'd already got and fitted the motor and recently bought the 4S battery. They were both relatively expensive and if not used in this model wouldn't be used in another (well maybe the battery could be but not the motor) so I was committed really.

Anyway I've dug myself out of the hole by finding a 120amp HobbyWing Quicrun ESC that does take 4S and has the cooling fins and fan which I will leave in place.

My 120amp water-cooled Seaking ESC won't be wasted as I can use that in my water-jet project which has a water-cooled inrunner brushless motor and I have a 60amp version I can use in another build.

All of this is part of the fun and learning for me!

Hi Chris, I’ll humbly admit that, rather than trying to answer your question, I’m actually taking notes on your setup and your observations—hahahahaha!

As a comparison, I have run a 49in Perkasa on a MFA 850 brushed motor with a Mtronik 50 ESC and a Lipo 3s (11 volts). It went like a demon!

Hi David, thanks for the thoughts and observations. Mentioning the cooling, or lack thereof, limiting the performance made me think that the max.capacity of 4S also means that the ESC is operating near it's upper limit.

Actually the ESC I bought for this build, same but 120amp takes 2 to 6S so it might be better as has more leeway.

Most of my ESCs are finned with fans at 60amp and above (but fans removed) being the HobbyWing Quicrun range though I have a couple of other makes in boats I've bought which are shrink wrapped and no cooling but only 30amp.

The 120amp Quicrun only takes 3S so no good.

So, I'll revert to using the 120amp Seaking and see how warm it gets in testing.

Hi Chris, lovely motor as they say..! Like you I prefer the Overlander brand of outrunners, they're very well engineered. I've not used that ESC, I think you said that you don't do water cooling, but that ESC is intended to be water cooled and so I'm not sure how it will behave without. I'd have thought it would rein in the current handling limits. It doesn't really have fins for passive cooling, or a fan, maybe others who know the ESC could comment. Other point about the ESC is it doesn't handle more than 4S, and while it shouldn't be an issue, it leaves just changing the prop if you want to tweak handling and performance. Not really an issue, more of an observation.

Hope to see it on the water..!
David.
Best regards

Calling Electrical/Electronic Experts

I've just started the RC installation in my Fairey Swordsman 33 and am seeking some advice/thoughts.

This model is using my biggest brushless motor as follows:

Overlander Tornado Thumper V3 4250/06 800KV - Brushless Outrunner RC Motor
• 980 watt motor
• 3-7 LiPo cells
• Shaft Diameter 5mm
• Motor weight 210gm (excluding accessory kit)
• 4mm gold connectors
• Speed Controller Recommended 60A ESC

which having a fairly low kV I'm going to run on 4S to give sufficient planing performance, and which I assume will produce 560w max as 980w is produced from 7s?

I don't water-cool and so always use a "bigger" ESC from the one recommended, so using a 90amp as follows:

The Hobbywing Seaking 90A V4 Speed Control (HW30302362) is a waterproof, brushless, sensorless marine ESC designed for reliable performance on the water. With 90A continuous and 360A peak current handling, 2–4S LiPo support, and a powerful 8A BEC with selectable 6V, 7.4V, or 8.4V output, it provides robust power delivery for a wide range of RC boat setups.
Key Specifications
• Application: Brushless, sensorless; waterproof design
• Continuous/Peak Current: 90A / 360A
• Input Voltage: 2–4S LiPo
• BEC Output: 6V / 7.4V / 8.4V selectable, up to 8A
• Size: 60 x 36.3 x 22.5 mm
• Weight: 115.6 g (including wire and output plug)
Programming & Telemetry
• Supported Tools: LED Program Box, LCD G2 Program Box, LCD PRO, and OTA Programmer
• Data Recording: Extreme value, real-time data, and historical graph supported
• Firmware upgrade supported
• Program Port: Throttle signal wire
Wiring & Connectors
• Input Wires: Red 12AWG 150 mm, Black 12AWG 150 mm
• Output Wires: 3 x Black 12AWG 100 mm
• Input Connectors: None
• Output Connectors: 4.0 mm gold female plug

Battery is an Overlander as follows:

SKU 2971
Barcode 5060470210168
Chemistry Lithium Polymer (LiPo)
Capacity 3700mAh
Voltage 14.8V
Cell Count 4S
Constant Discharge 25C
Burst Discharge 45C
Maximum Constant Current 92.5A
Maximum Burst Current 166.5A
Watt Hours 54.76Wh
Wire Gauge 12AWG (4mm)
Connector Options Deans, EC3 and XT60
Balance Connector Type JST-XH
Brand Overlander Batteries
Range Sport
Dimensions 136 x 43 x 24 (mm)
Weight 308 (g)

Amongst the options for the connector was the XT60 (which I use on a number of my other models) which I chose for fitment.

I was thinking that for the setup in this model I was going to use an XT90 connector but Overlander must feel that the XT60 is fine for this battery with it's fairly low discharge rate? My intended use is going to be pootling around with the odd faster lap as it's quite a small lake - no continuous fast runs. I will change the connector if necessary but don't like to change a "factory" fitted, well soldered on connector unless I have to. They do higher discharge 4S where they do offer the XT90 as an option.

I'm assuming in this scenario that it's the battery max draw is the deciding factor rather than the capacity of the motor and ESC, would that be correct?

What do the members think?
