MTB Rapidstrike Motor Rate of Fire Tests on 3S LiPo
Channel: Blastersmiths UK
Date: 2016-12-22

Testing a bunch of Make Test Battle brand motors for rate of fire on 3S. We used Make Test Battle's method of filming the pusher at 60fps and taking 60 frames to count the strokes in a second. 

Results are as follows:
Stock: 9darts/s
Rhino: 10darts/s
Hellcat: 11darts/s
Honey Badger: 14darts/s

Stock RS tend to get a bit toasty on 3S so we recommend you only use it for short periods. They also lack enough torque to motor break reliably so will need diodes in position accordingly. We've had some reports that Honey Badgers may also need diodes for bringing them under control on live centre circuits.
