what do u think of this esc to use instead of 30A (Tiger Motors 40A ESC - 3A/6V BEC - NON-SWITCHABLE! )
since he is out of stock for 30a it is 2 weeks passed and still i thought I should get this since it is the same price of 30A but would that be good with those motor that I already bought? what do u think any idea or I should wait to get 30a by the way would one be able to proggrame these ESC just so it does not drain the battery less then 3v

Hi Paktazh
i don't see any problem testing with other brand…. there are lot of discussion lately related to esc issues and best brand stand out …i would go for Hobbywing or Maytech

No video at this moment too busy with the kids and a work ….. Guess what ! i drop other 3k for new radio Futaba 18mz
in regards to radio having some problem with the existing receivers to bind…..

I Build the frame part by using the xaircraft bottom fuselage looks good and installed all 6 tiger motors but I got only 3 Tiger Motors 30A ESC - 2A/5V BEC since clubheli is out of stock and they are waiting to get some more from China there are not that many places selling Tiger ESC also waiting to get the connector that I bought on Ebay for those 3 esc that I already got
Regarding the battery so r u using 2 of the 3s 5000 but do u know if they are 20c/30c/40c ????????? that u r using
do u know anywhere else to sell those tiger ESC ?
thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm looking forward to it….! i can't remember now … there was a site in U.K who carries the Tiger motors and Escs, when i purchased directly contacted the Tiger motors ( name of the contact Julia she refer to Club Heli)at that time they don't even have on their web site i had to wait almost a month i guess you have to wait, just like i did :02.47-tranquillity:

battery brand name- Venom 2x 3s 5000mah ( 35c) and other brand zippy from Hobby King 30c excellent batteries max fly time 12 minutes still 80% of charged remain in the battery

Hi guys,
Have problem how to wiring t-motors with t-motors 30A ESC. Is there specific procedure or you can random solder wires from motors to ESC, because all 3 wires from both motors and ESC are black. If I compare Gaui wiring there is black, red and yellow wire. And for 1,3 motors goes red-red, yellow-yellow, black-black and for 2,4 motor like yellow-yellow, red-black, black-red for spinning in different direction.

Any help welcome,

Vojc

you put them as you want and then you check if it turns right... if not you change two of three and it will reverse.!

 

[Vojec]

Thank you. What you prefer: Solder wires (cut wire) between motors and ESC or use bullet connectors (leave longer wires)?

 

[PaNt]

i dont know my friend..! i am new to multirotors.. today i ordered mine.

But i think that i will put bullets and then a heatshink.>!

 

[Vojec]

I must cut bullet connector off if I want put wires into boom. Use Mikrokopter octo XL frame. Have small square booms. Thanks anyway for help...
