when ever i test them individually . the motor esc combination works fine .
But whenever i connect all the four motor's to my KK2 board . One of the four ESC's
blows off .
This has happened about three times
using a 2200 mAh battery .
Please help
What exactly does "blows off" mean ? The motor connected to that ESC goes to full throttle ?
if possible, do a youtube video showing the problem. you will get many answers to help you for sure.
By blowing up i mean that the ESC's get heated up and then stop working.
Its probably a defect in the ESC's. Contact the shop from where you bought the ESC's from.
Those Hobbyking 25-30 amp ESCs are notorius for sudden failure. Same thing happened to a friend in California and once with me also. They are overrated. Use a watt meter to see how many amps they can handle before the heat buildup. I still have a couple of the same ESCs but only max them out to about 12 amps with no issues.
I agree with Lance sir... so far I have burnt 2 motors with those stupid escs... I ran a 10a motor on a 18-20a esc and it fried it... it's better to invest in a plush esc or something better.. these cheap ones are not worth the effort
