Just another Foil-Assist from south Germany

Started building another Foil-Assist today:

Flipsky waterproof 6384
Flycolor X-cross 160A
6 * Fullsend 4000mAh 6S/1P ( together as 12S/3P)
Battery box: Camdenbox CHDX8-322C
Alubox for electronics: BOXEXPERT Aluminium Industrial Enclosure Alster 150x64x34mm
Motorpod von Kparts
Foildrive 3 Blade Prop

First things first- I needed to drill 4 holes and tap them to be able to mount the Foildriveprop to the Flipsky motor.

Because of the 6 batteries there is not enough space for the electronics in the box - so I put them in an extra box (Sidewinderidea by Oli from @Beenee-foilsports). This aluminium box also serves as a thermal mass to cool the esc.


I added a piece of aluminium to distribute the heat from the ESC faster. ESC will be glued onto with thermal glue.

At the moment I´m planing the Batteryconnections. As I´m using 6 Lipos 6S/1P I connect them first into 2 6S/3P with an Adapter and then together to 12S/3P. I´m not shure what I have to do with the Balancecables when the Lipo is in my Foil Assist- Do I have to connect them also in a way?
When I`m charging the packs , I have a ParallelAdapter, where I can plug in the XT60 and the Balancingwires.

Thanks!

You don’t need to connect them. If you want, you can connect a LiPo beeper (just to one) to get an alarm when cell voltage is going below a setable threshold, i.e. 3.4V. Starts to beep when one cell of the connected pack reached 3.4V.
