    Fizzit's RC freeride build log - now with videos

    What would you do a Castle Hydra 180?

    Tommorow Im picking up my Castle Creations Hydra hv180 speed controller. I know that the sensorless controllers have a tough time at startup and with surging.

I think I have figured out what setup im going to run on my e-bike. 80-100 130kv motor -Yes i know that the 80-85 might be smaller and cheaper.

    Bueller... What are the theoretical rpm limit of the 12fet controllers? Im looking at the turnigy 80-100 130kv on 12s lets say nominal voltage. 3.7v x 12s= 44.4v 44.4 x 130= 5772rpm If my math serves me correct I multiply the motor rpm by the number of poles to find the electrical rpm?
