HVAC Tech from TN/RC Guy builds a P2 setup for 3.0L

[Jbrock]

Hello Everyone,
I have purchased the following items for a P2 build after seeing AlexLTDLX's success with a larger engine.
I have a small HVAC business in Middle TN where I do Residential/Commercial HVAC and Refrigeration, and I've been into RC/Electronics all my life.
I really enjoy comparing the HVAC world of pressure, temperature, pump laws, and mass flow rate to the world of Electric Supercharger discussion.
I'll post more details of everything I am building in the different forum sections...

Its a regular 2-stroke, not a Nitro...a Nitro would've been fun!!!
This was for a Drone Generator project to come up with an Active Rectifier solution with the VESC platform.

The whole point of that project was also to test having a Starter motor also act as a Generator.
This will hopefully benefit an E-Boost setup by either using an exhaust turbine, or to replace an Alternator.

Thanks! I ended up making a ton more progress with the VESC, but decided not to release it because there were tons of "Sketcky" YouTube accounts and comments that started popping up.
I decided to contribute the project knowledge to a USA based Drone company instead of posting to YouTube further.
Needless to say, the VESC can viably replace a 3-Phase Full Bridge Rectifier as an Active Rectifier with FOC.
