Really? I thought the minimum fets for a chili was a 2x2 of 4562's? I was under the assumption that a chili would fry a 2x2 stack of 3010's?

a 2x2 of 3010 will run the chile but prolonged use will damage them over time
especially in an awd

I tried the chilli motor on my 2wd and awd 2.4ghz with stock 3010's. They work but the battery drains faster and there's no punch on the car. It almost feels like the car is on high gear but it's not. I swap the fets with 4562's and the car has gotten fast with better runtime and doesn't heat up the fets as much.

Herman: next year I'll let you run this awd, asf w/ 4562's and chilli motor. It is insane... on the straight it looks like it wants to fly .

exactly,they are not stacked ontop of each other so less heat build up,also no 2 motors are exactly the same,to be on the safe side go for higher current fets

Any updates as far as anyone using the 4562 fets? I just got the conversion board for my 2wd and am thinking about making the fet swap.

@oif03vet--I'm not using 4562, but I did replace the stock FETs with SP8M4 on my ASF mr02 stock car. It's noticeably more punchy, while the throttle is still linear and controllable. Definitely a plus when running the PN 70t motor. Interesting tag by the way, I was in Saudi in 03 and Balad last year

I'm running 4562's on my mr02 that I use with PN stock motor. Noticeable increase in speed/punch and is more efficient.

If I understand this correctly I could leave the stock fets on my 2.4 pcb and just add 4562 fets on top of the top stock 3010 fets? Will mixing these fet cause problems? Will this set up be able to handle a PN Anima II and a PN Xeric with no problems?

Hope the answer is yes, because I dont want to remove fets .

Also, I think the stock fets have enough punch. I just dont want to burn up anything if I have to run an Anima 2 or a Xeric.

Philip: The answer is YES. Cristian is correct, just put another layer of fets on top of your stock 2.4 double layer of 3010's and you'll be good to go!

So if I understand this correctly, you guys added only 1 layer of FETs to the top FETs, for a total of 6 FETs, 4 on top and 2 on the bottom. Did I got this right?
