How much Power Output is a Cap Pack Capable of? 

This is with no doubt the best electric power system channel on the RU-vid, congrats. As a Mechanical Engineer I really appreciate learning the fundamentals and theory behind the hobby. I'll be installing CC 12V 880uf cap packs on my 60cc electric setups to reduce the load on the ESC as I fly 3D/XA and usually get very hard on the throttle stick.

Great video, thanks for the info!

Great and to the point! Thank you for doing that:))

I actually built a 1.2F cap bank... Because I can 😛 You're spot on with the explanation. Cap bank is basically there for line filtering so your ESC is happy. One other thing I want to mention is most of the cap banks are subpar quality. They typically use average quality general purpose caps without high ripple current ratings like you'd get in say quality automotive grade caps.

Thank you and good info 👍🏻

Great vid ryan

Thank you good vid and info💯🙂

How do I determine what size caps I need for my 2s 8.4 drag set up. 880uF 35 volts. Without tearing one apart I'd love to know

I have a dbxl-e 2.0. I'll be installing an r-snake flier 400a esc paired with a leopard 58113 870kv motor running on 8s. While I don't drag race, I do use full throttle up to 10-15 seconds or a little longer at a time. Would you recommend me using a cap pack? This is a 1/5 scale buggy. My main concern is just to help protect the esc. The batteries I use now are 100c and they tend to drop voltage on full throttle, but I am planning on getting higher c rated batteries 120c+ even if the mah is a little lower. Edit: I know the system will be drawing over 300 amps on full throttle.

Excellent video as usual. Question, would it be better to have a bank of smaller caps, or a single larger one? I like to solder on a single 3300uF 35V cap to my ESC battery leads, would getting a bank of smaller caps be more beneficial? Thanks!

Is it good 2 fit large cap like 6000uf on 2s

Apart from voltage and capacitance what spec should i check for each capacitor? I don't want to end up buying the wrong one...are some kind of technology preferrable or i can go for the 101 cap i see on ebay?

How many voltage and uf I need to run 6s?

How does one calculate for a cap pack uF size?

Something else do you think it is best to use more smaller capacitors in micro farads but in total the same amount of Mf. For example one capacitor of 4000mf or four capacitors of 1000mf each?

Great video, I knew there was more I wasn't considering before I add a cap bank to my rc car. I've been considering using super/ultra capacitors though. Thoughts?

..Gracias

Ok. So more capitance and higher voltage caps the better?

Kindly so how can I calculate how much micro farads I should use, for example I use 6s battery so I used 35v capacitors but I wasn't sure how many capacitors I should use for a speed run so I made seven capacitors of 2200 micro farads each connected in parallel and 35v but I can't tell the difference that it made because I am using Max6 esc and 1720kv motor but they don't have the telemetry so I can't see what is happening?

Always wanted to ask you that question

ty for the videos. great stuff. i have some important questions in regard to choosing a set up for a 1/5 on road car. would you have a email address that i could send the questions. ty

I need this explained in more layman’s terms.

If you’re doing speedruns and you lose esc power or lipo comes unplugged you’ll be able to safely use the servo to steer your car of the road with the power left in the cap packs. Imagine 140mph with a sudden loss in braking or throttle input 💀

That made my brain hurt......

Black board is easier to see the writings compared to the white board.

So they do a lot but they really don't do much... Got it
