motor heat vs power settings
  • whizpop
    Hi,
    I have found for my setup that I get best results with my YAW motor with the following settings:
    P:12, I:.15, D:60 and a power of 230

    the problem is that the YAW motor gets quite hot after using for ~ :30 minutes.

    I have tried lots of settings and this is the most stable I've found.

    is this symptomatic of the motor being too weak or is there something I can do with my settings to help?
    for example:
    doubling the P value and cutting the power to 115?

    thanks,
    David

    it is an indication of too weak motor. You could try to compact the gimbals, shorten tubes, reduce weight etc. this makes it easier for motors, or simply change bigger motor.

    ok, will look into upgrading a motor.

    hello,
    you can also apply more power if your using 2-3S move to 4S battery.

    That would help, but whizpop mentioned that the motor was already getting hot. Might be though necessary with the new motor to raise voltage to get the full power.
