Hi guys
Rebuilt my single motor build - 8S battery, 6374 170KV motor and 97mm wheels - with a VESC.
Unforttunately it will no longer do hills. With the Alien power ESC it never blinked at any hill, but the brakes were totally white.
Was so impressed with the VESC on my dual build that I thought it would be good for my single as well.
Works great on everything except hills. Although there are small heat sinks on the FETs the temp rises very quickly and then cuts the VESC. pretty dissapointed now. A fan is out of the question due to vibrations leaving the only real solution is to go 12S, not something I really wanted to do. Or maybe get a torque boards 12S ESC. Hmmm, what to do???
