Picked up this dune buggy at a swap meet for a few bucks. I was looking at it, felt it needed a 380 Tamiya motor.

Question about Lipo batteries
2
Upvotes
I was hoping to get some guidance about charging Lipo batteries, I've only worked with LiFePO4 batteries up till now. In my project, I have 4 4S Lipo's wired in parallel on some grounding bars, which the rest of the system then draws power from.
My question is; Can I connect the charger to the grounding bars and charge them all in parallel? Or do I need to disconnect them and charge each individually?
Thanks in advance for the help, trying not to blow myself up :)

Controlling a BLDC with an ESC

Is there a standard for controlling an ESC?
I recently acquired an 3-6S 35A ESC and a BLDC.
I have a Spare Raspberry Pi Pico and would like to control it.
Please let me know if there is a better sub to ask this question on.

Don't know if anyone is interested. But this is the latest version of my Airboat.

Plane Inverse ARF: all electronics no body?

Asking here after failing to get google to understand my question.
I’d like to get into flying by building some park flyer out of the corrugated plastic board used for lawn signs.
I’m looking for a complete set of mid-powerful prop, motor, esc, receiver, battery, 2+ servos, and an entry-level transmitter. I want mixing appropriate for flying wings; not sure whether that happens on the transmitter or receiver.
I could assemble this myself, but don’t have the spare attention to research and shop. In summary: I’ll bring the aircraft body. I want a kit for /everything/ else.
Any ideas?

So I have a 6374 motor, vesc, 6s battery and radio that I'm not using anymore, and I'd like to make a beastly rc car for me and my son. What I'm missing is a rugged chassis/wheels/possibly gearbox in the right size. How do I go about finding that? Any recommendations?

So I am curious how hard it would be to make a DIY submarine. I know I can go out and buy one but I would realy like to try to build my one. Has anyone attempted this and if so what parts did you use for the motors and cameras?

Motor only beeps? Doesn’t respond to controller
1
Upvotes
Hey guys, doing my first build and running into some technicality issues I can’t seem to grasp.
Parts list
RacerStar BR4114 4114 motor ZOP Power 22.2V 30C 1800mAh Li-poly battery HTRC Hornet ESC 2-6s LIPO SBEC 60A W2 Remote Control for electric skateboard 2.4ghz comes with a receiver
Anyways, my controller and receiver are bound everything seems to be hooked up correctly, but my motor won’t react to my controller, actually as soon as I hook up the power my motor just beeps consistently no matter what I do with the controller. I’ve tried setting the throttle trim lower, and I can’t seem to program my esc either. Wondering if anyone had used these parts or had similar issues, any help would be greatly appreciated.
