Interesting. In my above referenced build, I tested the cap packs with the same method that Jason did in his FloPack video. I let them charge for awhile with electronics armed and then pulled the battery while the ESC was still powered up. Like you, I experienced nothing after disconnecting the LiPo. It would not even briefly power the servo, ESC, or fans. Are Jason’s units simply that much better, or am I missing something here? I was surprised that literally nothing happened.
And again, I’m not expecting something over the top. Just the ability for a quality cap pack to handle ripple and voltage sag to some limited extent.
It is possible he is using super capacitors that have significantly more capacity, but the last time I checked they were only rated for low voltage. To utilize them you would have to put many of them in series to handle higher voltage. Not quite sure what he is doing but it seems to work.
I'd love to see another video to confirm it not provided by the person trying to sell the product.
