i bought 2 cheap amazon return esk8 boards. the batteries needed to revived. i put a 7s2p and it worked great. i tried a 10s2p and blinking red light. then tried 8s , it worked , then 9s it worked. much better than the 6s1p it came with. it uses the same controller as Razor X Boards, but mine can drift …

Good eye. OP got any actual pics?
your name? bot?
I already have one board with a 7s2p. Why did I go through the trouble? I guess I’ll need someone else my size to see if there is a range difference, cuz 4 more 18650 can go much farther or faster.

If you’re looking for range, increase the pgroup. Speed, increase the series.

If anything I really want is the braking power to increase. The other board with the 7s2p was better. Probably better battery, or I put too much extra wire. I’m gonna try 8s2p because the wires connections look more solid.

Braking power would depend on the esc programming. Not much about the battery since you have to change the regen current for more stopping power… But you can try and see if it does.

It increased a little, or maybe a little in my head. But it seems like the controller has to stop because the battery is full. Any thing I can do to increase the esc power, can it be done with better mosfets and capacitors.

No, it has to be reprogrammed. However, I’m not sure if that board specifically is able to be reprogrammed. This is where you usually just get an esc that is reprogrammable.
Whatever the manufacturer had programmed the esc to, that is what you’re stuck with.
Since that is the razor x, you’re stuck with it unfortunately.
