    DC6 Full Build Video: • BUILDING an AMAZING DC...
    In this video I am using 30amp ESCs that has a 5v BEC lead to power the receiver. You only need one power lead for your receiver so if you are building a multi engine plane you will need to remove the red power lead from the other ESCs. The brushless motors I am using are 2212 1400kv. The receiver is a AR620 with a NX-10 transmitter.
    Thank you so much for watching!

      Same for me, I have experience flying, but not building. I’m making a twin motor plane with a 70 inch wing span. Almost finished with the wing.

    I've been looking to make a multi-motor/esc project this has an excellent explanation of the process and options. I haven't been able to find any literature that wasn't 20 years old on this subject , or that didn't give erroneous cautions or methods that just didn't make sense. My local hobby shop actually looked at me funny when I mention what and how I'd like to go about my project, you know like dogs do when they aren't sure what's going on. That was my big sign to find information else where. If you ever do turn this into a document I would gladly store it away with all the other articles and books I have on these subjects

    Nice bench set up, might also mention calibrating the escs all together.... (In something like a twin it's important to be getting relevant thrust from each side.)

    I'm going to use multicopter escs now. They are smaller and lighter but don't have a bec. For that application i use a multicopter pdb with integrated bec where i can solder on up to 8 escs depending on your board. Now i only have to solder on a single battery connector and that's it 😉

    Maybe also worth mentioning that the colors on the 3 motor wires are not relevant - in case people have motors/esc with single colored wires.
    And maybe also to check the current drawn by multiple motors - make sure the battery can handle it if you use 4/2 motors on a single battery

  • @garygullikson6349
    @garygullikson6349 Рік тому

    Good simple description. If multi-motors are connected to separate battery packs, one weak battery pack may result in one ESC going into low voltage cutoff and one motor cutting out. Using a single higher capacity battery pack may have some advantages in smaller models.

    Nicely done , thank you. If you want to power two motors on one bigger battery, do you mean more volts or more amps ? Both ? Can you plug à 6s battery to 2 escs accepting 2-4 s lipo without burning them ?

  • @andreassittig2772
    @andreassittig2772 Рік тому +2

    I prefer leaving the ESC plugs intact and remove the power ("+") contact(s) from the Y harness(es).

    Hi, thanks for the video, excellent. I'm busy building my twin electric model. The twin system necessitated (or so I thought) in extending the leads between the battery and the ESC. I'm told this is incorrect and I will be in trouble; the ESC won't work properly, I should installed a capacitor just before each ESC. The leads between the ESC and the motor should have been extended. My leads are ~600mm long. How did you solve this problem on your multiengine planes? Would appreciate a comment.

  • @flyerelite5153
    @flyerelite5153 4 місяці тому

    Is it possible to leave the power wire in the other esc? I'm thinking it be OK since it's in parallel, it would also act as a redundant if the other esc were to fail.

  • @mattmessina6407

    I really appreciate this video and I tried to recreate the same thing. However I am having trouble only one of the two brushless motors is running. I have 2x40A ESC and 35c/2200mAH battery. Any help would be greatly appreciated

  • @M4rkmcc21
    @M4rkmcc21 6 місяців тому

    I'm experimenting with a Stock twin prop 550kv set up. 2x 40A esc, 1x 6s lipo and the max Amp draw is 62A. I'm assuming this is over the 2x ESC combined so my ceiling is 80A. However if I'm going to use 2x lipos I'd certainly not use 2x 6s lipos. The power of the 6s is shared with the 2 motors. I feel if I was going to go dual lipo I'd use 2x 4s lipos. (These motors are 4s rated in 4s planes and 6s for 1 motor would surely be into the 90A+). My question is how do I work out the RPM of each motor in my set up? How much voltage do I know each motor is getting on 6s set up? My aim is to change out the motors to 750kv hoping my stock 40A escs are within operating limits. Cheers

    Since you disconnect BEC Red wire from esc from 2nd & 3rd motor.
    Can one easily "Reconnect" this red wire back to each connection without need to soldering or needing to buy a replacement ESC?

  • @seancrombie458
    @seancrombie458 9 місяців тому +1

    If you are using a dedicated receiver battery that is separate from the flight packs do you disconnect all 4 of the power wires from the ESC’s since the rx is being powered by its own battery?

    I did it differently..I hooked up one big esc and branched each of the wires coming off it into two.
    Seems to work okay, but is this going to cause damage in some way?
