First test of my remotored Zero XU

Maybe I missed it but how many volts were you at to get 60 mph?

Also, what's the status of them little packs? I'm guessing they're 18650 cells.
 
That was a great video!

Glad you're OK and it looks like minimal damage.

Turnigy is LIPo in rectangular pouch cells... thats why it says LiPo crotch fire on the video title.

Oh, wow, thanks for clearing that up for me. How ever would my life go on without your passive-aggressive style of answering questions... :roll:
 
Good vid! Sorry for your loss but you live and you learn. Im about to start testing my own project with 10c multi stars and they are not powerful enough...this video is my warning!

I'm running 72v here, they're turnigy 4s hardcases, not 18650's. RIP two of the packs

Thanks. Yup, just some minor blackened melting of the lexyan plate I have as the floor of the batt box, nothing major.

Absolutely not, especially considering these are 20C packs, and they couldn't survive longer than a few minutes. However I'm pulling 300+ amps here, so YMMV depending on your max amp draw.
