Ok here goes. Got an 8th buggy a 2250kv motor and a 1900kv motor. Im running mechanical brakes also. The 1900 has a 1800w output the 2250 has a 1250w output. Lipo is a 4500mah 4s. Does the 1900 draw more power than the 2250 meaning less run time?
asking cause when I first started with the 2250 my run time was around 16 - 18 minutes when I added the mechanical brakes (to help cool the motor) that dropped to 12 minutes. I thought if I got the lower kv motor I could raise that but it has got even lower.
Also when I set the lvc to 3.4 it comes back as 3.8 on the battery even under load I've even gone down to 2.6 and it still comes out as 3.4 under load.
Esc is a sc8 motors are 1900kv turnigy and 2250kv hobbywing. Anyone got any thoughts on any of my incoherent ramblings cheers
