hello all!
I had a 5 blade 70mm edf,60amp ESC,2200 mAh 3 cell lipo. I accidentally broke it's fan(impeller). couldn't get my hands on a 5 blade impeller so got one with 8 blades. now the problem is that I don't know how much amps it drew on 5 blade, but it was certainly below 60 amp. now I'm afraid of using the 8 blade fan with 60 amp, as I'm guessing it might toast the ESC and I don't want that. I don't own a watt meter and have run out budget so getting a new one is out of the question. hobby stores here dont have any either! any idea what can I do here.
the link to the motor is http://www.tiansheng-model.com/product.asp?anclassid=5
it is TS2830/3300kv.
one more thing, I was wondering of using a 55 amp or 60 amp fuse to save the ESC while testing the 8blade fan. the idea is to attach the 55amp fuse in between the negative wire of lipo which goes to the ESC.im Guessing that if the motor sucks more than 55 amps the fuse will blow, break the circuit and save the ESC. this is my theory, I'd like you guys to tell me if it'll work or not. eagerly waiting for your feedback.
