How to Turn ON and OFF Low Voltage Detection

[cashman968]

Why wont my rustler vxl go backwords

[statrap122]

thaks for this video. helped alot.



[irspecialer]

dude, that's not the motor making the sound, it's the ESC

[Ydoucare8]

@irspecialer

yes but in a tutorial video its good to point out 2 notifications instead of just 1

better to SEE activity and both hear as well. the motor will always wiggle as well as that sound.

you are right tho thanks

[on255156]

Thank you so much for telling the info. My dad and I didn't understand what high voltage mention. It just kept blinking red what

[Ydoucare8]

@on255156

NO PROBLEM. . .a rapid red blinking light is a over heat protection wich is like 2 blinks per second. 1 blink per second RED would be low voltage detection just follow the instructions in this vid. enjoy and remember TRAXXAS has a free customer service 1888Traxxas.

Wer is ur reciever?

[rcmaster29]

when low voltage detection is on i can use lipos ?????

[PSPENZO1]

@rcmaster29 yes... but when its of you can stil use them BUT!!!! when you lipo voltage is under 6 volt (3 each cel) then it wont turn of and that kils your lipo

[101quadrider]

were did you get the alum axels that connect to the yolkes?

[Ydoucare8]

@101quadrider they are painted chrome they are plastic

[MrGrapebook]

do you run with out a gear cover?

[glo160]

lol it works with xl-5 but dont use lipos in the the xl-5 wont take it

[Ydoucare8]

@glo160 as long as the amps are below 100 you will be fine here is a example of what you can have

2 cell 7.2v 5000mah 20c max 20x5a = 100 amp

2cell 7.2 5000mah 30c NOT RECCOMENDED  30x5a = 150 amp over by 50c

[PSPENZO1]

@Ydoucare8 can i use a 2 cell 7.2v lipo with 3000ma and 25c?

[Ydoucare8]

@PSPENZO1

of course thats a BABY battery

3000mah = 3Amps times 25 only 75Amps

VXL is rated at 320 amps as long as your minimum doesent exceed 320amps

i just got a 3s 5000mah 45-90c wich is 5Amps times 45 only 225amps, under the 320 mark

even thou 5Amps times 90 is 450 the Speed controller is smart enough to not accept that. its the minimum that will get you in trouble. ill make a vid on this topic thirs alot to be explained.

oh yeah, traxxas just put low voltage detection into their xl 5 esc's. can not get them now separate from the slash 2wd kawasaki edition. forgot to mention that they have a kawasaki edition lol. only available through your kawasaki dealer, or ebay for $270. glad they finally put LVD into their xl 5

[hunkydorytube]

is hat an aluminum spur??? where did u get it?

[MrGrapebook]

@hunkydorytube just look at any online hobby store, and look at uprgade/replacement parts for your car

[Traxxasizfunruslter]

can u do that with the xl-5

[Ydoucare8]

good question? you got me thinkin. i would think so because you probally could run a 2s not a 3s. try it LOL tell me what happens.

[Ydoucare8]

Traxxas does not tell you that this is LIPO ready, so No Heres the specs 100amp peak is very low. I WOULD NOT TRY LIPO for XL-5 Input voltage: 4-8 Cells (4.8 to 9.6 Volts DC) Motor Limit: 15-turns* (540 Size) 12-turns* (550 Size) On Resistance Forward: 0.007 Ohms On Resistance Reverse: 0.014 Ohms Peak Current - Forward: 100A Peak Current - Reverse: 60A Braking Current: 60A Continuous Current: 14A BEC Voltage: 6.0 VDC BEC Current: 1A Thermal Protection: Thermal shutdown

hey i also ordered one turnigy lipo from hobbyking when you already paid , you have to call the store or the mail or just wait until it gets to california?????

[Ydoucare8]

just wait once they confirmed you payment CHECK YOUR EMAILS.
