Can you use a sensored ESC with a non sensored motor?
Can you use a sensored ESC with a non sensored motor?
Taking a sensored motor and using it with a sensorless ESC will work with no problem. The motor will simply act as a sensorless motor since the ESC will figure out rotor synchronization based on back EMF generated. In other words, a sensorless ESC will operate a sensored motor as a sensorless motor.
What is 60A ESC?
Skywalker 60A ESC enables you to drive your brushless motors conveniently and safely. This brushless motor driver can provide up to 60A continuously and 80A for 10 secs. This module can be used with RC helicopter and plane motors.
What’s the difference between sensored and sensorless ESC?
Sensorless motors simply do not have sensors inside the motor—hence the name sensorless. They determine the likely position of the rotor based on feedback called back-EMF. EMF is short for Electromotive Force. Sensored motor manufacturers also state sensored designs have more startup torque or power off the line.
What does the amp rating on an ESC mean?
A higher amperage rating on the ESC means that it will handle more amps, which means you can run a larger pinion gear and go faster without damaging the ESC. Or you can choose a motor with a higher KV, which will also draw more current, and go faster.
What is ESC for 3S LiPo?
Go with the MMP esc. Brushed or brushless, 6s capable, plenty of power. Mamba Monster 2 and new Sidewinder 8th will handle 3S LiPo, high power motors, run brushless and brushed, and are waterproof. So far I have not seen the Sidewinder 8th available standalone (without the motor).
What is a sensored ESC?
A sensored BLDC motor is a brushless DC motor with inbuilt positional sensors (called hall effect sensors). These sensors can be used by a brushless motor controller (brushless ESC) to monitor the exact position of the rotor and are therefore a useful method of maintaining speed of the brushless motor.
