In this video you connect your RC controller channel 1 to RC1, and channel 2 to RC2. You have your multi-meter connected only to Motor Left, so either throttle or steering should affect the multi-meter, but not both. What did you do to make it so that both the throttle and the steering affect Motor Left? Did you mistakenly put your board into Independent Mode instead of Mixed Mode? I don't own one of these so I'm just guessing based off the user manual.
@@xbmcnutYes I know . I want to use a high power relay to remotely disconnect power to the Cytron. Like this m.th-cam.com/video/5Dn0kBMt22c/w-d-xo.html
The controller has two built in fans that run at full speed all the time so don't think an extra fan would be necessary. If it ever does over-current, it will just self limit anyway.
Hi thanks for sharing. I am building an rc lawnmower that will probably weigh about 200lbs. I'm using 24v 350w wheelchair motors. Do you think the smart drive duo 30amp is enough for this?
Yes! I used the 30A Cytron for my lawnmower with 4 wheel chair Invacare motors setup (2 on each side) and it still working fine. Assuming it is for lawnmower operation and nothing else, add a 20A fuse on each side of your motor just to be safe. The above 60A is overkill, but if the price is getting below $100, then it is not bad. Fans of expensive Sabertooth: It is time to switch!
This is a fantastic device for actuators

how the external BEC connects the power to the 5V line (RC) ?
The unit provides 5vdc for the receiver. Nothing else is required to connect a receiver.

@@szopanawsi Sorry, I'm not quite sure what you're actual question is?
@@xbmcnut Ok. Thank you
@@szopanawsi The controller has a built-in option to add a power switch which puts it in sleep/standby. Would that suffice?
Hello. How can I buy in Brazil?
Use Google! Far out, absolutely hopeless you are.
Hi! I noticed in the description, you put that its suitable for 48v dc, the specifications say 45v, will it take 48v? Without burning up?
You are correct. Max voltage is 45vdc
hi good video. is it possible to get a fan for the mdds30? i dont want the controller over heating
thanks in advance

@@xbmcnut he's talking about the 30amp version that doesn't have fans..

...heh. I'm turning a mobility scooter into an R/C airsoft drone.
2 x 1500W 24V brushed motors. Should be fun.
