    Esc low voltage sensor tripping

    If you decide to run with the LVC turned off in the ESC you can buy a cheap LVC alarm like this to let you know when the battery is getting low. Although if the system really is pulling too much current the alarm will just go off too. I guess that would be one way to test it though...

    Esc low voltage sensor tripping

    Well thats disheartening. That motor is listed for 3S use so I'm guessing the prop is too big for the motor and thats why it overheated. You may have to run it on 2S or downsize the prop but if its still doing the LVC thing then Id probably start looking at your electronics for issues. Sorry I...

    Good stuff! :)

    Esc low voltage sensor tripping

    Yeah please do let me know. I'm curious. Also try using a little bigger mah rating LiPo if it will fit. The additonal volts from 3S and the more mah the bigger the amp load the lipo can handle. If you have something laying around. I hope that works out for ya!

    I know the stock battery was 3s and you're running 2s. Running lower voltage actually increases amperage draw too. The Gool 4500kv motor according to specs I found online has a max wattage of 300W. So using Watts law (Wattage = Amperage X Voltage) We can see that on 3S if we take 300W divided by...

    So I'm not a boat guy but I know a decent amount about electric RCs in general. My educated guess looking at the electronics and battery that came stock vs what youve put in to it I would say your LiPo is inadequate for the amperage draw. You went from using the tiny little motor below to using a...
