Applications
Q: How can I prevent my RC boat's brushless motor from overheating?
A: To prevent your RC boat’s brushless motor from overheating, ensure the water-cooling system is fully functional and properly connected, with steady water flow during operation. Use a propeller that matches the brushless DC motor’s specifications to avoid excessive load, and confirm that your ESC and battery setup stays within the recommended voltage and current limits. It’s also helpful to avoid prolonged full-throttle usage and operate in cooler environments when possible. Regular maintenance, such as flushing the cooling system and checking for clogs or leaks, will also help maintain optimal temperatures.
