Crush42 Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Just bought an M14 combat master and looking to get a lipo. I have plenty of lipos already, but I'm worried they could screw up the motor or the piston's stuff. The lipo on the echo 1 website is an 11.1v 1650mah 15c. Mine is 11.1v 5000mah 50c don't care if it fits or not lol. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Druid799 Posted April 12, 2018 Supporters Share Posted April 12, 2018 No shouldn’t have any negative effect , it’s the voltage that kills guns if the batteries to powerful , eg if you stick an 11.1v in a gun that’s only rated up to 7.4v for example , 50c V 15c just means it’ll have a bit more ‘snap’ to it and the capacity (1650 x 5000) just means it’ll last forever !

Supporters Rogerborg Posted April 12, 2018 Supporters Share Posted April 12, 2018 I put an 11.1V 2600mAh 25C/50C lipo into my CYMA and it overspun the motor something awful, spurting 1-and-a-bit BBs more often than not. Your 5AH x 25C (constant) is going to deliver close to 1.4kW, or more than a typical cordless drill or jigsaw will draw. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't if the motor doesn't need it. The original battery can deliver about 25 Amps and the new one can do 250 Amps. I doubt 25A was enough for the motor so probably a significant voltage drop occurred. That won't happen with the new one. It will have higher ROF. Feeding issues, or overspin is likely.

Supporters Rogerborg Posted April 13, 2018 Supporters Share Posted April 13, 2018 Cheerfully corrected, I should indeed have said could deliver. If OP does experience overspin, is there any bodge they could try without dropping money on MOSFETs or motors? I just diked a cell off of my 11.1V to bring it down to 7.4V - fortunately it was a triple-nunchuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
