My build
Turnigy SK3 192 Kv motor
39"x10" 7 ply hard rock maple board
Enertion vesc-x
Enertion Space cell 10s3p pro3 battery
Alien power system remote
83 enertion wheels
Abec 9 bearings
I weigh 180
And I get about 23mph at top speed with this build, I get about 16 miles on a full charge and the board doesn’t take Hills too great. I feel like I’m not getting what I can out of it.
Can anyone help me out. I’m semi new to e-skating.
I’m running a dual setup with 190kv motors, 10s voltage and 15/36 gearing and 83mm wheels.
All I’m getting is 23mph as well.
By changing your vesc settings, you can increase performance in terms of acceleration and torque for climbing hills but if you want to increase top speed, you’ll need higher gearing or larger wheels which will in turn reduce your ability to climb hills.
My suggestion would be to bump up the motor max to, at least, 50. I run all my 10s boards at 60amp max, but I would say to start at 50 and see how it goes. That should be a decent set-up with the 192kv motor. BTW I do not own a VESC-X, only VESC 4.12.
You can up your motor max to 80a and your battery max to 40a.
Those settings will be perfectly safe for your motor, vesc and space cell battery and will give you a noticeable boost in power for climbing hills however it will not increase top speed.
Your already getting 16 miles from a 10s3p. I’d say thats pretty good mileage especially if your climbing any hills.
BTW, if you increase your motor and battery max amps in bldc tool to improve power, you might see a little loss in mileage because the more amps you pull the faster your battery will deplete. So it’s a trade off.
The settings didn’t cause that. Something else happened. If your battery blew up it’s because a cell got shorted or went into thermal runaway. The spacecell is designed to handle 40a
That’s because it has a 40a fuse.
The cells in that battery are rated for 20a ea.
20a x 3p is 60a total load capacity.
Hard to say. You would have to open the battery pack to see what happened. I’m guessing either a cell got shorted on its self or against another cell in its group or maybe a bad cell that over heated.
