New 3s LiPo battery on 45 amp ESC.

[Paul Williams]

Can a 45 amp esc (Etronix) handle 3s? I read it can but on testing i think I saw a spark with a funny smell i will try again later but its a bit concerning. If not does anyone know of a 1/10th ESC motor combi that can handle 3s its for a Tamiya TT02. Thanks.

Whats the best motor Esc combi make for 1/10th 3s racing.

Its obviously too much power nevermind. Il stick to 2s. Unless the newish Lihv battery will be ok how do I know if it will be ok?

The battery I bought to put in is 3s 55c 4500mah happens to be an overlander.

I overlooked the tt02 bit. In all honesty, the gearing is really set up for 2s. So unless you do the maths to work out the gear ratios to optimise for 3s I would stay on 2s.

But all my diffs are metal and everything..

I want faster it not quick enough.

Il try different gearing then first.
