Hi Guys,
Thank you for your responses. I have to be honest I am a bit lost and confused. If I am understand correctly, running a lower KV will be 1. More efficient due to amp draw of the motor draining the battery faster. 2. The high KV loses energy through heat, can someone please explain how energy is lost through heat? I have read through other sources that motors do have voltage limits, how true this is I’m not sure, the limits are 1800 -2100 6cell, 2200-2600 4cell, 2700-3800 3cell, 3900-9000 2cell? I want an extremely fast but light buggy!
