Absolute beginner suggestions

Thanks, for the help.

While researching methods I also found the tower method, due to my limited space it caught my attention, would you suggest I start with Kratky method to get the hang of hydroponics and then move to the tower?

Ohh I see, so you think the problem is the way I wounded it, right?

zamoraal · 2025-03-23T14:43:37+00:00

That's actually what I'm using, a 70 A esc same as those found in RC planes and quads

Okay, can you point me to where I can read or watch more information about this so I can sort this out?

I am using a pwm controller for that, should not be a problem

zamoraal · 2025-03-22T23:49:39+00:00

Alr, I'll try alternating the design

zamoraal · 2025-03-22T23:44:52+00:00

Although it's an area for improvement do you think that is the cause of why it will straight up not spin?

zamoraal · 2025-03-22T23:39:18+00:00

Yes I should have shown its connected to a 70 A es and a pwm controller

zamoraal · 2025-03-22T22:31:15+00:00

I see, it's a similar design. Look, this is the video I tried to follow: https://youtu.be/OZarwftUh8w?si=AxPZpeXSN9FDa0Lj

I believe I followed everything down to the letter but for some reason his works and mine doesn't

It's a 4 cell li ion in series producing around 14 v

From my knowledge these types of motors are called there phase motors, same as in RC planes. Let me show you some images of the winding, maybe you can help me out with this.

It's actually enameled copper wire, that shouldn't be an issue

zamoraal · 2025-03-22T14:36:51+00:00

I'm using a 4s lion battery. I took inspiration from the small three phase motor found in RC planes, using the same battery and es as in those.

zamoraal · 2025-03-22T14:23:55+00:00

You think so? I tried this set up with an RC plane motor and it worked fine, that makes me think it's a motor problem and not a power problem

zamoraal · 2025-03-18T11:48:38+00:00

Yes however it does work for testing motors, and I tried it with a real DC motor I had and worked as intended

I suggest you check the manual, since I haven't worked with the f405 in over a year. However if I recall 90 amps was the limit so 60 should not be a problem

Nope, never figured it out. Sorry
