12000mAh in NAMBA and none in IMPBA

Ok so there is the possibility in IMPBA of running with lower voltages with several multiple parallel packs. Like you said you need a controller that can sink it. Have you attained a direct source for the cells JAGS use? Christian was involved and suggest they can be purchased at German speed plane site but I have no positive confirmation. Do You?

BACKORDERED!

SLS SPEED
For all high-current junkies: There is no such thing off the shelf. The SLS SPEED were "bred in the laboratory" with great effort. Many thanks to Jorg, who supported us with his experience and his many years of know-how. Special separator, special electrolyte, wide axial conductor. Really all components are designed for performance. Almost like a small nuclear power plant. We have never had a cell that eats so much electricity or that can be charged so much. Especially the axial conductors (butterfly) do what they are supposed to do. They stay pleasantly cool. ... and don't worry, it's even cycle-proof...

If anyone could get them today 2 of these in parallel can sink >1.4 kA

Hubert,
The upper limit is 10s in both organizations. I believe NAMBA still has a 2 parallel pack limit for all classes, but this may have been revised. IMPBA has no parallel limit.
In Germany they run by slightly different rules and only allow certain cell configurations with a maximum weight per cell. So a 10S2P pack is considered L20. A 10S1P is an L10. You can run L10 with two 5S packs in parallel. In these rules riggers are allowed to run up to L10. So practically they all run single 1P configurations in riggers. This pushed need for better cell chemistries and Joerg in particular worked with a specific vendor to develop these cells.

Yes I am familiar with the cells run by Joerg, Arne and Gunnar. They were kind enough build be a special 1P pack when I run in Munich. I could not take these home on the plane so they stay in Germany.
The cells that JAG run in the riggers are not the same as those run in the cats.
The cats are likely running the SLS cells, but the riggers are running specially built cells only available to team JAG.

The SLS cells are near identical to the RoaringTop cells here in the US. Joerg and I have both benchmarked the SLS and RT cells and found the results similar from the chemistry.
What makes the RT cells good for 1P configurations is the mechanical construction. They are a "butterfly" style construction meaning the tabs are at either end of the cell allowing for greater width and current transfer.

From a chemistry perspective if you can package 2P in the hull, the HK Graphene cells are hard to beat. They do not have the best construction, but their chemistry is good and they are very stable.

Hi Tyler,
Thanks for the information on the batteries. Its key. Here's a few shot of the lake at dusk and dawn.
This is about 35 miles from "Asheboro". It can be accessed directly of 64 east from that way. It would be about 3 hrs from "Asheville" if you're that far west. I cant remember which you said.

I hope to Speak with Mike and propose another outrunner alternative for scale boats. Egodrift. I'm working with Vincent Offenbeck to release custom rewind kits. They come handwound with larger monowire. The quality and output surpasses a standard HKIII 4035 Scorpion. A motor like this can easily peak over 5kW while weighing only 488 grams. Im not suggesting it as a SAW motor but it does have potential for high torque and high pitch props. It will run cooler than the old 8 pole HK4035's. The is a 12 slot 10 pole motor. Here is a predicted performance graph from a rewind I did on an Align outrunner, a much lower quality motor, based on its motor parameters Kv. weight, pole count , idle current and measure dc resistance. I increase the copper fill by nearly 2 grams. This LRK single winding scheme was patent by Christain for the outrunners There is some potential with all the torque and lighter powerplants. In delta the resistance is very low and the power density high. You always needed a controller that could commutate the high pole counts . APD can do this. to over 100krpm. Christian and I are working with the universities NC State D.E.E.C.S. on fractionally slotted concentrated winds that are rivaling distributed winds like a NUE or Lehner's low BEMF THD. Laymays terms.... A beautiful sine wave with very low harmonic content and boosted torque.
The beauty of the FSCW is the high fill content. The downside has been the slot and space harmonics associated with non overlapping coils.

A fun video for you. An outrunner exploding at nearly 200,000 rpm. Motor is run to its mechanical limits. The APD PRO HV drive is perfectly alright after the run and obvious motor short. Enjoy! Obviously it would be easier to build the carbon retention sleeve for an outrunner since You dont have to be mindful of degrading the flux relationships in the air gap. The retention sleeve has to be a press fit so it would have to be preformed on a slightly undersized mandrel finished then parted off. I already have those numbers as they pertain. For the inruners im visualizing a jig using a fishing reel with drag to pre tension carbon tread or stainless wire around a inrunner rotor. Inconnel has also been used with success. I think Steve's high speed rotors involve an interlocking dovetail channel of some type. Note the shrapnel trough the side of your toke much harder than our skin!!

This is what FE cal reports back on the rewound align. They go on about it in Grmany. Ask Christian he can tell you the work he and I are doing with the motors.

In a performance hydro with 10s lipo @ 9800 mah and a castle 240. Prop wizard selected an ABC 1918 as the most efficient prop for the setup.
Resultant:

28,221 rpm
141 amps
4,955.78 watts Pin
4,728.58 watts Pout
run time 4.15 minutes
est speed 79.20 mph or 127.46 Km/h
Eff. 95.42%

The efficiency doesn't begin to drop off till 284 amperes surely the beginning of the end @ 10.5 kW.

[eXoNerated]

Here is the wind. It is a parallel WYE wind in a single layer. The torque plot at 10S lipo is also attached. U,V,W, terminals are composed of 2Xs 13 AWG. This compact winding can sink amps and should be able to hold 396 amps for 10 seconds. Onderdonk would be be beyond any drive on the shelf.
Egodrift 4035 and and APD F3 200 should be supper competitive extremely light power system for 1/8th scales.


Rm .oo5 ohms
Kv 824
Io 3.27 amps @22.5 volts including radial fan load.
Weight 448.8 grams
12 slot 10 poles
U may use the parameters in calculators if you would like.

Hubert


PS
I have contatcted Franz and await his answers.

Hello Hubert,

What is your experience level with model boats? I gather you are an EE working on a quads and other aircraft motors and controllers based on the names you mentioned and the above information.
I am not trying to off putting, but cannot get a bearing on what information to provide you.

The lake you mentioned does looks awfully nice, but I suspect it has a fair amount of real boats and potentially swimmers in the area.
In both IMPBA and NAMBA running model boats where full size boats are near and particularly swimmers is forbidden and likely negates any insurance coverage.
I know a few model boaters ignore these safety rules but it puts all of us in jeopardy. I may be stating the obvious, but please be careful when considering where to run especially for a SAW boat.

[eXoNerated]

I have 30+ years experience in model boats. Beach areas are roped off and no ones at the lake in the early am or dusk. Were still in a covid world so the activity is marginal as compared. I understand quite well wats involved liability wise as safety is concerned, but I certainly cannot leave the entire state to find water . As a 44 year occupant I know that's madness . Anyone that does that simply doesn't know the state of NC just yet. Theres water everywhere T. What to do? As you say the boats are getting too fast so how does it proceed from here? The NC club is down and there really no explanation about it. Its just dead over some stolen boat parts etc. and that's just it apparently. It was too small for SAW anyway according to James. U are here in NC so we only need 3 more to make it valid as a group. If I pull my son in we only need 2 more. The idea of driving to Huntsville or out of the state isn't practical so I have to find a place to run and make the best of it. Unfortunately we have to share the water but I'm fine with this as we all have a right to recreation in various ways. I'm fine the times I cannot test because the landlubbers are enjoying themselves. We also have falls lake another option. These huge reservoirs have many coves away from the crowd. These are better spot as the trees help break the wind and reduce the chop.

Regards
Hubert.

Tyler,
Can you tell me more about the German location? What is the lead (Xc) into the trap and afterwards? If you set up an appropriate course for the speed you are seeing today how would you do it? How many feet you need etc. I have an approach diagram for SAW . Gimme a second and I will post it. Tell me how inadequate is it or not for todays speeds? What's actually need for the new era of fast electric speeds? Sorry if you cant follow I'm simply sharing tangents of this you might find interesting. Maybe not. I am and engineer but I've spent just as much time with the boats as anything else. I'm not at all put off by what is said. If a person has no familiarity with what I am speaking on its okay. That's what sharing is for. Don't worry. I have full faith in my team, equipment, and abilities, and believe I can run faster than 100 with a scale boat built with my hands. We will see . Also is the German trap approximately 1/10 of a kilometer?

Regards
Hubert

They use the Munich Olympic rowing lake it is 2.23km long and 140m wide, they don't have it all available to them though, I think they have access to 500m of it, so 100m trap distance and 200m for acceleration/deceleration at either end.

Hi Paul
Thank you for your answer about the site.

[RaceMechaniX]

Paul has has it correct. Munich has a very active model boat crowd and a local champion also named Joerg who organizes the event every year.
There are usually about 20-30 guys that show up mostly with cats and riggers, but there are a couple sport hydro's and even canards that run.
The group rents a portion of the facility towards the south west corner which is the end of the lake.
A tall drivers stand is set-up approximately in the middle. The trap distance is 100m and timed with lasers. The run up and down on either side is something like 200-250m.
IMG_9898R.jpg
At the speeds team JAG are running they could use more length. They need airbrakes to slow their rigger down sufficiently to avoid hitting a beach.
There is good video from a quadcopter shot in 2015 to give you an idea.

Thanks Tyler,

This was the response from Franz.

Hallo Hubert,
ja, du kannst die Spanzangenkupplung bei mir kaufen. Ich habe dir ein Bild davon an diese Mail geh?ngt.
Die Kupplungen haben alle die gleiche Ma?e, nur unterschiedliche Bohrungen f?r die Motorwellen. ( Durchmesser 27mm, L?nge 38mm)
Die ER 11 Eins?tze habe ich von 1-7mm, und in Zoll 3/16 Zoll und 1/4 Zoll.
Eine Spannzange kostet 39,50€ plus Versand wie gew?nscht.
Gru? Franz

Translation;
The collets are available with inserts of 1-7mm and in 3/16 and 1/4 for $44.50 plus shipping

I found out the shipping is about 50 dollars DHL so Franz is pricing the delivery through regular postage. In my mind it is way worth it even it it was 100.00 because all the insertt available for e-11 make it the most versatile single collet to date. They indicate the TIR at .0003. I can live with this. I still may makesome like your design because they are lighter with less rotating mass.

Thanks Again
Hubert
