Going Brushless!!!!!!!

I have decided to buy the Novak Brushless system. I was wondering if it would be possible to run two 1900 Amp Pirahna packs with the ESC. Cuold i just solder the wires together and ad Deans plugs?


Thanks

Well that depends on the way you wire the packs together. If you run them in parallel to increase your run time it should be fine. But if you run them in series that will be 12 cells worth of voltage which I think is beyond what the controller is rated for.

The Novak Super Sport ESC is only rated for 4-7 cells, which means you would be exceeding it's limit and would probably fry the ESC.

I'd just stick to 6 or 7 cells and call it good.

The Novak is plent fast when geared correctly and running with 7 cells.

Have fun with it and enjoy.
