I was wondering if anyone here had some concrete advice on how to increase the top speed on my backfire ranger x2. I’ve heard that adding voltage works, but with a prebuilt battery pack, that isn’t very easy unless I just connect a whole second battery in series, but that would double the voltage heading to the ESCs. Would that break those components? If so, how else can I look to increase my range? Thanks!
Well it’s a nightmare to be honest. the simplest way is to sell it ang get a beltdrive board.
1200W @ 50v = 24 A
At 50v (12s) ur motor can handle 24A. not sure even vesc can help with those hub motors. u need to change out the motors and wheels and get pulleys and belt and motormount and maybe vesc’s.
but hopfully i’m wrong and someone will give u more posetive help.
Just loosen up ur trucks and master carving at 35km/h.
Apparently the speed limit is in place because of drain speed on the batteries. Apparently they don’t have enough amperage to supply the motors, so the esc limits the speed
You may be able to lift any limits by using either a 30A Hobbywing ESC (Although they’re super rare in 12S, I don’t think you’ll be able to find one) Or a dual VESC.
I tried to upgrade ranger x2 to 12s8p battery pack with original ESC 2x15A,I need a range. Here is the manufacturer of esc : http://www.zydtech.com.cn/pd.jsp?id=5
