Telemetry: What's the maximum temp an ESC can reach before burning?
I just installed the telemetry module in my Funjet and I'd like to monitor the temperature of my ESC but I'm not sure what I should set it at to alarm me if it gets too hot...
What's the optimum temperature an ESC can reach before causing any damage or burning out? Thanks in advance!!! |

From Castle's page:
http://www.castlecreations.com/produ...enix-edge.html Controller temperature must never exceed 100C (212F) Good starting point.

Ohhh, nice, thanks bud!!! I guess I'll set it to 85, it's a hobbyking SS 190-200 but I'm only pulling 140 - 150 amps so it should be ok but I need to be safe... I appreciate the reference!!!
