Default Re: Magom Brushless Pump

Hi Rob,

I wanted to add my input earlier but has problems login in to post.

Compared to my setup your system looks like it's running too high in pressure. I'm using 3S lipo and 60A brushless ESC and is assigned to a rotatary knob on the transmitter, if I turn the pump to 50% power I get about the same power and speed as your video, but I find as low as 20% it works fine lifting buckets full of sand.

Strangely after my pipe popped on Sunday I have replaced the pipe and now it runs a lot quieter and smoother than before.

I also notice your pump/tank has an overflow pipe, mine doesn't so guess is unvented. And the foaming of the oil I got at first fill up so think that is related to clearing the air out of the system (I might be wrong).

Ian.
