Brushless motors are synchronous electric motors that have a magnetically (AC induction) or electronically (DC) controlled commutation system instead of a brush-based mechanical commutation system.

Brushless DC motors are common place in RC Vehicles. They are small, light, fast and can be inexpensive. [Raynerd] wanted a new spindle for his CNC machine and thought that a brushless DC motor ...

DC motors are electric motors that are powered by direct current (DC), such as from a battery or DC power supply. Their commutation can be brushed or brushless. The speed of a brushed DC motor can be ...

[pitrack] thought he could do better than printing out a few blinking LED circuits and designed and built a brushless motor, the same kind you would find on electric model planes and quadcopters.

We’ve already seen a few EREVs from several different companies. Most recently, Scout Motors unveiled the Traveler SUV and the Terra electric truck, both of which are available as optional EREVs. But ...

The other major type of electric motors are brushless. Rather than use a commutator to switch the direction of current, magnetic-field shifting is done entirely without physical contacts. This can be ...

First of all, even if it is hard to believe, the number of electric motor produced per year is getting close to 10 billion. Brushless motors are accounting ... All these factors explain why fast and ...

You’ve reached your account maximum for followed topics. Until a few years ago, electric motors and mobility were used for either entertainment or medical reasons. But the efficiency of electric ...

For this list, I'm specifically looking at cordless drills with brushed motors, which are known for their simplicity and cost-effectiveness. I'll also tackle brushless motors in a future update ...
