@hyperIon1 @PatRocks or anybody else who already received the 6880 190kV motors from maytech, would be nice to see what the new vesc tool says about those motors and if it is close to the specs maytech gives.

I think @PatRocks can when he is back from holiday. I won’t have any until the end of next week to test.

Turnigy SK8 6374-192KV Sensored Brushless Motor (14P) SK8_6374_192KV_VESCTool106

The SK3 is more powerful than the SK8 (77A-10mOhms VS 67A-13mOhms)

It’s also lighter! (858gr VS 940gr)

Hey I think this thread is awesome. I tried searching a similar thread but didnt come up with anything good. Just a few small threads here and there, most quite old. I got here by finding a single post in thread about a different subject, that led me to vesc project thread on the same thing, then a link that led me back here to this thread. So I changed the title to make more easily searchable.

This is my motor its

Racestar 5065, 149kv, 67mOms.

Its been thrashed for two years so I dont know if that has any effect but the resistance is quite high even for a 149kv motor?

Considering that the torqueboards 5055 190Kv is 40 mOhms and they have the same size stator, 67 for 149Kv sound about right

As Kv goes down resistance goes up for the same motor

What is the factory kv rating?

Does anyone have the resistance for a 80XX motor? @Kug3lis or @Nowind maybe?

That’s a big boy. Although I am slightly disappointed in the weight/power ratio. I would expect more of the additional weight compared to a 6374 motor to go into copper. This thing weighs 240% more than a 6374 :open_mouth: It is a 130kV though, I would expect a 190ish kV to take even more current.

Good point but you can run it 18S.

Enamel is a real pain to remove, more than on 6374 motors.

It doesn’t look as good as SK3 motors, which are the best quality motors in my opinion (but I didn’t try TRAMPA ones).

You can probably run the other motors in 18s too. Essentially you can run as high voltage as you like provided the insulation in the windings holds up. The problem for us is that most vescs can’t run higher voltages than 12-13s. I had the white 6364 154kV Trampa motors and found them lacking.

How is the new vesc tool coming up with its amp limit and maybe it’s doing what amounts to figuring the motor km? I don’t know what numbers u guys look at but the kv and resistance alone should tell u the motor km or how much heat/waste produced for a given amount of torque and can compare all motors that way: the motor km If someone is good at math and can convert the kv to the kt and then throw the resistance number in then will have the km and we can compare all the motors with that number and only other variable being how well it can rid of the heat produced And iron losses

It assumes 60W heat losses as a limit for this size of motor, so after measuring resistance and using Ohm’s law it calculates the maximum amps it can take.
