Radio control helicopter- Battery facts and other tips

According to sources, it is said that a radio control helicopter battery of 10C, or 20C, stands for the optimal measurements since the battery is capable of supplying a constant current of 10 times or 20 times the capacity. So if our battery was 20C it will be able to supply a current of 36 amps (1.8 x20) and if there were no energy loss function for 3 minutes (1 hora/20) before becoming exhausted.

A little that many have noticed, working under these conditions is that the radio control helicopter battery is capable of developing a power of 410.4 watts for three minutes, the Cs are an indirect measure of measuring the power capable of generating a battery. Do not forget, however, that no power is provided by the battery but the propeller- It may be good to have battery power, which will be requested to provide the propeller whenever it is within the limits of one's motor and battery. If the limits are exceeded, the elements involved will burn, motor, controller and battery cannot work beyond their limits just a few seconds, exceeded this tolerance will be destroyed.

Actually a radio control helicopter battery delivers far less energy depending on the number of Cs to make it work for which these concepts are merely theoretical and serve only to understand what we put into play.

Some practical information will help you stay on top. Do not fall for low quality batteries or else you will face future headaches due to repairing. It is generally accepted that it is sufficient to have 100 watts per kg to propel an electric boat, 200 and 400 for a coach for a stunt. Viewed from another perspective can be considered standard commercial models is sufficient motor weighing equal to 5% of the total weight to propel a sailboat electric fluently, 10% for a coach and 20% for a model acrobatic.

The propeller, objectively knows its way to its diameter, in fact we can supply power depends on its geometry drums and quality, in general the amount of air that is capable of setting into motion the power output available to us to take advantage in the propulsion of our model, the power produced by the propeller increases exponentially with the number of revolutions to which we turn.

In order to produce the radio control helicopter propeller watts of power and thus consume some more watts that supply the engine, since the losses are always present in all transmissions of energy.
