Re: After the esc, the other stuff - simplistic questions

Also I'm not opposed to spending a little more for quality when it counts.

Re: After the esc, the other stuff - simplistic questions

Lima's reply from the other thread N20s typically have a stall current of <1A. Unless you get Polulu High Power ones, but they're kinda pointless for drive in an ant. In terms of choosing your N20, I like 500 or 600 rpm ones for drive. I get mine from AliExpress, though I'm aware some people have is...

After the esc, the other stuff - simplistic questions

I started to ask about other, non-esc questions I had in the esc thread, so I thought I would move them here to avoid cluttering the esc thread when I need to come back to that. I'm building initial bots (and arena) for myself and kids: I ordered 4x flysky FS i6 transmitters (I'll need to ask about ...

Re: ESC questions & why not USA shipping

Is it common for the esc to get "hot enough to burn"? This was just something in the endbots site and I was curious if this was just common to esc's..

Thank you!

Re: ESC questions & why not USA shipping

While I haven't scanned US eBay yet I'd start by looking on US eBay. Just type in search terms based around the product descriptions of the items you want from UK eBay. I'd be surprised if equivalent products didn't show up. Failing that, in principle I'd be happy to buy in the UK and ship to you i...

Re: ESC questions & why not USA shipping

If you're looking for an antweight esc in the USA, I'd suggest either the Endbots DESC, or a pair of the fingertech tinyESC's. The DESC is functionally the same as the nanotwo's, they come in two versions, one with the receiver built in (like the nanotwo v2/v3) and one without (like the nanotwo LT)...
